“We can’t think of a better way to welcome in spring on the coast than with an all-age contemporary music festival like SPRINGTIME,” Festival Director Mark Duckworth said.
“The Gold Coast has such a strong calibre of artists emerging from the city and we can’t wait to showcase their music alongside the county's best, in this perfect location.
“To also be able to celebrate the scene’s achievements over the weekend with our partners the Gold Coast Music Awards will make for an annual party not to miss.”
