Island Vibe Festival

Point Lookout

Island Vibe Festival is Australia’s best boutique Reggae and Roots event held at a stunning beachside location on North Stradbroke Island from October 25 to 28.

Held over four glorious days on Home Beach at Point Lookout, Island Vibe is much more than a music festival.

This year’s Island Vibe Festival is a kaleidoscope of musical talent with more than 80 acts, from roots and reggae, soul and funk, to dancehall and drum n’ bass; including France’s reggae superstar Naâman, Torres Strait’s mesmerising guitar virtuoso Chris Tamwoy, and Sydney’s very own rocksteady reggae legends King Tide.

An eco-event, the festival aims to preserve the fragile eco system of North Stradbroke (Minjerribah) with refill water stations, bike hire, bio-fuel generators, solar-powered stage, composting toilets and a recycling centre. Taking it one step further, there will be a ban on single-use plastics such as straws, cups and bags.
