October Long Weekend
Thursday 3 October – Monday 7 October 2024
Big Skies Festival is back in 2024 over the Queensland King’s Birthday Long Weekend!
The location… well that’s a star in itself, the stunningly grand grounds of Jimbour House set against the big skies of the Western Downs, Queensland (20 minutes from Dalby).
Beyond the two BIG days of live music on the main stage experience regional bus tours, the NEW Canapes Under the Stars or Sunset Dinner, chill out at Happy Hour at the Hangar, sit by the fire at the camp kitchen or take a tour inside Jimbour House.
