The Gympie Music Muster has been awarded the prestigious 2024 Queensland Music Award for Festival of the Year, cementing its status as Australia’s premier music and camping event. The announcement comes as a testament to the Muster’s ongoing commitment to delivering outstanding experiences for music lovers from across the country.

The Queensland Music Awards saw the Gympie Music Muster competing against strong contenders, Battle of the ROCK Bands and Tablelands Folk Festival. However, it was the Muster’s unparalleled blend of music, camping, and community spirit that captured the hearts of the public, who voted for the winner in this category.

The 2023 Gympie Music Muster set new records as the biggest edition to date, with four-day passes selling out for the first time. Building on this success, the 2024 Muster is shaping up to be another unforgettable experience, with tickets selling quickly and an impressive lineup of more than 140 artists set to perform over the four-day event.

From August 17-25, 2024, the Amamoor Creek State Forest comes alive as the Gympie Music Muster promises a diverse and electrifying program featuring top Australian and international talent. From country legends to emerging artists, the Muster celebrates the rich tapestry of music while offering a unique camping experience amidst the scenic beauty of Gympie.

“We are thrilled and honoured to receive the Queensland Music Award for Festival of the Year,” Muster CEO Greg Cavanagh said.

“This award is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team and the Gympie community, as well as the incredible support we receive from our loyal attendees and wider music community.

“The Gympie Music Muster has always been about more than just music—it’s about creating lasting memories, fostering community spirit, and supporting charitable causes. We look forward to welcoming music lovers from near and far to our 2024 event, where we will continue to showcase the best of Australian music and hospitality.”
