KICKASS MUSIC AND CAMPING FESTIVAL

ADDS LEGENDARY ACT THE CHOIRBOYS,

ANNOUNCE VIP CAMPING COMPETITION VIA CAMPLIFY


With a legendary lineup of Australian talent, featuring James Reyne, The Beautiful Girls, Kingswood, Dragon, Ash Grunwald, Sunny Coast Rude Boys & more, KickAss Festival have today announced the addition of another Australian mainstay, with iconic rock band The Choirboys joining the lineup. With 3 x ARIA Top 30 charting albums between 1983-1991, The Choirboys amassed a cult-like following of adoring fans, with 1987’s single ‘Run To Paradise’ a track reminisced by audiences of all ages, even today.

 

KickAss Festival is taking place in the stunning Sunshine Coast Hinterland, at Kenilworth Showgrounds; returning strong for a 2023 edition after 2022’s success. Offering 2 days of live music, events, food & campaign across September 8th – 10th, the event is a multigenerational experience for anyone wanting to experience the great outdoors, immerse themselves in local culture, and connect with like-minded people over an array of some of Australia’s best talent. 

 

 

Headlined by the magnetic Australian icon James Reyne and his 8-piece band, an artist who is known to ignite stages worldwide. The unforgettable frontman of Australian Crawl, his accolades span ARIA awards and a coveted place in the Australian Songwriters Hall of Fame.

 

 

“KickAss Music and Camping Festival!! This will be fun and not just because of the camping and the music or even the KICKASS, the fun is hanging with our mates backstage and you lot out the front. We’re itching to get to Kenilworth … it’ll be all about Rock, memories and laughs.” The Choirboys

 

 

We were devastated when we found out about GANGgajang having to pull out. But sometimes things are meant to be. Choirboys happened to be available, it fit our festival perfectly and now we have another iconic band playing at our festival. With a plethora of classic hits, we can’t wait to welcome Mark Gable and his band to Kenilworth in September”
