Brace yourselves, Gold Coast! The BEST NIGHT EVER is back and ready to close out the year in epic style.
This year’s event, set to again take place at Miami Marketta on Saturday 30 December, is loaded with a lineup that will leave you needing to take New Years Eve off!
As the sun sets on 2023, Gold Coast music fans are in for a punk rock extravaganza like no other. with a line up that’s as much a nod to the old school as it is a calling of the new guard.
Aussie legends, the Dune Rats are ready to make their mark once again with their first show on the Coast since 2019! Known for their energetic live shows and chart-topping hits, they’re excited to bring the party to the Best Night Ever. As BC from Dune Rats puts it, “Psyched to get back to the Goldy at Best Night Ever. We played it a couple years back and our mums had a sick time and dad spewed. Keen to do it all again!”
The Smith Street Band have been a powerhouse of Australian music for the last decade. On top of non-stop touring, they have had 5 albums hit the ARIA Album Charts, with Don’t Waste Your Anger becoming their first number 1 album in 2020 plus 6 of their singles have made their way into triple j’s Hottest 100. Their most recent studio album, Life After Football, was a renewal of the group’s pub rock roots and showing that overall, the band are still on fire.
Adding to the pub rock vibes are Adelaide upstarts, Bad//Dreems, who bring a rough-and-tumble brand of rock and roll, full of high energy and tale telling singalongs. Devo meets Television meets Sunnyboys – you bet.
Returning to the live realm after a short hiatus, Pist Idiots, are heading up the motorway to the Gold Coast for the first time since 2021. Known for their pulsating live sets of suburban Aussie rock that can be heard blasting out of V8 Commodores nationwide, this is one set you don’t want to be stuck in the bar line for.
The event welcomes it’s first ever international act in the way of, Sun Room who ave emerged as Southern California’s newest surf rock heroes. In just their first six months, they achieved viral success, scoring spots at the Austin City Limits festival and supporting notable acts like Louis Tomlinson and Inhaler and had two of their tracks featured on Netflix series, Outer Banks.
