The nostalgic festival celebrating cars and culture from the 50s, 60s and now the 70s, Cooly Rocks On™ will be bigger and better than ever!
Established in 2011, Cooly Rocks On™ has evolved to become Australia’s premier rock’n’ roll and nostalgia festival celebrating cars and culture of the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s and a signature event on Queensland and Australia’s event calendar.
The annual five-day festival is set within a combination of outdoor stages, venues, streets and parks of the beachside streetscape of iconic Coolangatta.
The highlight of Cooly Rocks On™ is undoubtedly the destination; the spectacular beaches, the relaxed and friendly hospitality and family-friendly atmosphere for which the Southern Gold Coast is renowned.
In 2018, everyone’s favourite events will be back including the rock’n’ roll, rockabilly and swing artists and entertainment, dance displays, workshops and championships, Poodles & Pugs Parade, Retro Markets, Miss Cooly Rocks On™, Miss Rockabilly and the signature Street Parade.
