ABOUT US

Calling all country fans who love a good party!

Groundwater Country Music Festival (CMF) gathers some of the best country artists in the industry for three days of FREE live music on the Gold Coast.

After a massive 10 year celebration in 2023 that featured close to 60 homegrown and international artist, 1300 songs and 135 live shows, it was three incredible days of jam-packed country music that will forever be in the history books!

Set only steps away from the iconic golden beaches of Broadbeach, there’s no other country music festival quite like it. 

The name Groundwater draws from both the Aboriginal people’s close spiritual connection, as well as the farming community’s reliance on groundwater for survival. To our core, Groundwater CMF is a festival that celebrates community, brought together by the shared love of country music.

So whip out your cowboy boots, dust off your hat and come for the party at Groundwater CMF 2024 from 18 – 20 October!
