Cooloola hinterland festival ready to rock

A three-day music and camping festival set in the picturesque hills of Wolvi is ready to rock from 28 to 30 October.

The Wolvi Stomp is a unique licensed music festival set in the Cooloola hinterland.

The exclusive festival is limited to 250 tickets, providing an intimate experience with high quality musical acts, reasonably priced alcohol and food/coffee vans.

Now in its fifth year, the line-up is bigger and better than ever.

This year’s Stomp will feature headlining acts including roots and blues legends, Hat Fitz and Cara as well as blues rockers, The Urban Chiefs, Mojo Web, Hussy Hicks, Z Star Trinity and festival favourite, Frank Sultana.

Local artist include Phil Barlow, Jukejoint, Whiskey & Me, Vix & the Mayor (Bob Abbott), Ray Gage and Karen Thompsen, with more acts released by the end of September.

The festival is based at The Wolvi & District War Memorial Hall on the banks of Tagigan Creek, 20 minutes east of Gympie and 30 minutes north of Pomona.

The Wolvi Stomp is a community-run festival that supports the maintenance of the Wolvi Hall and their not-for-profit, community activities.

Due to the intimate size of the festival, only weekend passes will be available for sale.

Limited on-site camping is available and will be managed by the Wolvi Rural Fire Service, with all camping proceeds going to support their valuable work in the community.

If you want to camp on site you will need to purchase the weekend pass with camping option.

The festival organisers aim to provide every camper with a comfortable experience. Extra toilets are provided for campers.

Food vans and coffee cart on site. Camp sites will be allocated on arrival, depending on requirements and group size. Maximum camp site size of 8 x 8 m. Campfires are permitted in braziers only, subject to the fire conditions at the time.
