Sandstone Point Hotel on beautiful Bribie Island, is celebrating its 10th birthday with a huge Oz music celebration on Saturday 26 July.

Leading the line-up of legends, and fresh off their sold-out Back to the Stoneage tour, will be our very own Romeos, Hoodoo Gurus, together with a top shelf list of rock and pop legends including James Reyne, The Angels, Chocolate Starfish, Mi Sex, Spy Vs Spy, The Chantoozies and Matt Finish.

General public tickets go on sale at 9am on Thursday 27 March from Ticketmaster and Oztix.

Over the last 10 years, the Sandstone Point Hotel has hosted over 700,000 music fans across a huge array of concerts. Some of the artists who have performed or are confirmed to grace the lawns include Bryan Adams, The Beach Boys, Simple Minds, ICEHOUSE, +Live+, Richard Marx, The Smashing Pumpkins, John Farnham, Jane’s Addiction, Joan Jett, Jimmy Barnes, The Corrs, ZZ Top, Incubus, Hunters & Collectors and Gang of Youths (Phew!) to name a few.

Sitting comfortably on 300 metres of unobstructed water-frontage on the shores of Pumicestone Passage, the Sandstone Point Hotel is a destination like no other. Home to a beautifully appointed restaurant, multiple bars and function spaces, a kids playground, a beach club and pizzeria it’s the perfect location for a great day and night of musical delights.

Hotel owner, Rob Comiskey, said, “It’s hard to believe that 10 years have passed since we first opened the doors to Sandstone Point Hotel! Over the past decade, some of our greatest achievements have been in the live music space, including being named Australia’s Best Entertainment Venue. So, what better way to celebrate our 10th birthday than with a concert?“

“I still remember the nerves surrounding our very first gig – but we didn’t start small. We kicked things off with The Beach Boys and never looked back. Now, hosting events is second nature; our team runs like a well-oiled machine, and while it may feel like just another workday, it’s always a little more fun!“

Mr Comiskey added, “Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of welcoming thousands of guests for unforgettable performances by some of the biggest names in music – John Farnham, Simple Minds, Dom Dolla, Gang of Youths, and so many more. So, of course, we had to go big for our 10th birthday, and who better than the Hoodoo Gurus to bring the party?

“We can’t wait to see what the next 10 years have in store for Sandstone Point Hotel. And trust us – we’ve got a few more surprises up our sleeve!“
