Bluff Fest is back and kicking off with a high-energy Saturday. Set on the lawn right above Alex beach it’s loud, local and the prefect launch into summer.

Headlining is Hockey Dad, fresh from international touring and a new album that’s redefining their surf-punk sound.

Joining them is Coterie, the breakout band of the moment, four brothers blending sun-drenched soul and surf rock with massive momentum across Australia and NZ.

Also hitting the stage: Perth’s genre-blending live act South Summit.

Coast local favourites include Nana’s Pie, Jemzel and Frank & Louis.
