About the festival

Set in the picturesque campground of Gootchie Creek Escape, Summer Campout returns February 12th–15th 2027 for a weekend of music, nature and connection. This year we’re also celebrating Valentine’s weekend, bringing an extra dose of love, community and magic to the bush. Here’s a glimpse of what you can expect at Summer Campout. Get ready for an eclectic mix of music genres to suit every taste. From indie dance, chill, psy, breaks, glitch hop, DnB, progressive, house, minimal and techno, there's something for everyone. With multiple takeovers hosted by some of the most exciting crews in Queensland including The Wonky Queenslander, Fraktyl Frequencies, Frisson Records & more TBA, the weekend promises unforgettable performances and late-night dancefloor moments under the stars. This year we are excited to once again be working alongside the Love Camp – Love Camp stage dedicated to connection, groove and the deeper side of the festival experience. Expect a warm, intimate dancefloor surrounded by nature, featuring soulful house, downtempo, melodic, bush tech, techno, organic beats and sets designed to keep the vibe flowing all weekend. Along with the music, the weekend will also host chill spaces, art installations, and spontaneous performances that capture the true spirit of Summer Campout. Need to recharge?
