JUNGLE GIANTS, BAG RAIDERS & MORE TO TAKE OVER QUEENSLAND’S SUNSHINE COAST AND GOLD COAST THIS BOXING DAY WEEKEND

Queensland’s east coast is set for a huge Boxing Day weekend, with Sunny Side Up Events bringing a stacked lineup of Australia’s biggest party starters to the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast on December 26th and 27th.

Spanning two iconic coastal destinations, the back-to-back summer celebrations will feature Australian favourites Bag Raiders and Jungle Giants (DJ Set), alongside internationally acclaimed UK DJs Josh Butler and Switch Disco, bringing their globally recognised sounds to two massive coastal parties, supported by a huge lineup of local talent.

Kicking things off on Boxing Day, December 26th, BY THE SEA heads to the newly reopened Marina Mooloolaba (formerly Pier 33) for a waterfront celebration set against the stunning Sunshine Coast backdrop. Leading the international lineup are UK house heavyweight Josh Butler, known for his infectious house sound and dancefloor-focused sets, and UK DJ duo Switch Disco, whose high-energy edits and crossover dance anthems have made waves across the UK and beyond. They’ll be joined by Australian electronic duo Bag Raiders, best known for their global dance anthem ‘Shooting Stars’ and an arsenal of feel-good electronic hits, alongside three stages of local DJs bringing an eclectic mix of house, dance and party anthems throughout the day and into the night.

For those looking to elevate the experience, VIP ticket holders can also enjoy an exclusive four-hour drinks package, complete with prime views overlooking the water.

Then, on Sunday December 27th, the celebrations head south to the Gold Coast for the annual BURLEIGH BLOCK PARTY, bringing together another huge lineup of electronic and party favourites. Building on the success of three recent sold-out events under the Burleigh Block Party banner, featuring Sneaky Sound System, Lime Cordiale (DJ Set) and Will Sparks, the latest edition is set to continue that momentum with another massive summer soundtrack. Featuring Jungle Giants (DJ Set), Bag Raiders, Josh Butler (UK) and Switch Disco (UK), the event will see some of Australia’s favourite electronic acts and international dancefloor heavyweights take over Burleigh, with the Gold Coast’s vibrant coastal scene providing the perfect backdrop for a post-Christmas party.

From waterfront celebrations to sun-soaked dancefloor moments, these two events are set to deliver the ultimate Queensland summer party, offering the perfect excuse to keep the festive celebrations going.
