Festival feel
What it’s like
The Muster is built around the full festival experience: live music across multiple stages, camping in the forest, long days, late nights and a strong regional Queensland crowd.
It is one of the state’s key country music events and a useful festival to watch if you are following Queensland’s regional live music calendar.
