Returning to the Gold Coast from 16-19 May 2024, the 23rd annual Blues on Broadbeach is set to be another massive year celebrating the best homegrown and international rhythm & blues talent.
Featuring artists like Melissa Etheridge, Samantha Fish & Jesse Dayton, Ana Popovic, Eric Bibb, Jon Cleary & The Absolute Monster Gentlemen and many more on the non-ticketed lineup, we’ve got the music taken care of – that’s for sure!
And when the blues are playin’, the drinks are sure to be flowin’ too! Lucky for you, the Gold Coast is blessed with a huge selection of breweries and distilleries to satisfy all your beer and whiskey cravings!
YOU DON’T NEED TO WANDER FAR!
In case you forgot, the festival is right in the heart of the Gold Coast! With Broadbeach filled with bars and restaurants on every street, a good drink won’t be hard to find.
If you’re a beer lover, head to Harajuku Gyoza Beer Stadium for a glass of delicious Japanese craft beer or head to The Lucky Squire for a wide selection of quality craft beers brewed right on site at their two-storey brew house. And the best part? As one of our partnered venues, you can enjoy some quality live blues right from your table.

Made with love right here on the Gold Coast, come and have a taste of the unique selection of ales, pilsners, lagers, stouts and sours. From Burleigh Heads down to Currumbin, the list of local watering holes are endless.
