Come celebrate the motors, music and lifestyle of yesteryear! Cooly Rocks On returns to Coolangatta on the Gold Coast. Featuring one of Australia’s best Show ‘N’ Shine displays, the festival showcases an impressive collection of hot rods, kustom vehicles, lowbrow art and more, with more than 900 vehicles lining the streets of Coolangatta. As for the music, some of the best rock ‘n’ roll, swing, rockabilly and tribute artists from around the world will take to the stage throughout the festival. From Bang Bang Betty & The H-Bombs and Pat Capocci to international Elvis Tribute Artists like Dwight Icenhower (USA), Louis Brown (UK) and Che Orton (NZ), it’s another massive rockin’ lineup that’s sure to get you moving! Cooly Rocks On is also one of two festivals held in Australia to host an official preliminary round of the Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Contest, with the winner heading straight to Elvis Week in Memphis, USA.
