Stranded Block Party // The Rubens
🎉 STRANDED BLOCK PARTY – YEPPOON’S BIGGEST COASTAL GIG IS HERE 🎉
SATURDAY 2ND AUGUST • STRAND HOTEL CARPARK • 1PM–LATE • 18+
Yeppoon, get ready — the Stranded Block Party is taking over the Strand Hotel Carpark for a huge open-air music bash, headlined by Aussie alt-rock legends The Rubens. With hits like Hoops and Live in Life, they’re bringing serious festival energy to the Capricorn Coast.
Joining them is a red-hot lineup: Nana’s Pie, blending coastal grit, heartfelt lyrics and big harmonies; Vlads, delivering surf-rock chaos, wild riffs and sweaty shout-alongs; Betty Taylor with their dreamy indie-pop heartbreakers; local legends The Short Fall, returning with soaring alt-rock; and Chill Hill, setting the vibe with smooth, golden-hour grooves.
We can't wait to party with you this August and we're turning up the heat with a massive fireworks display as the Rubens close out our first ever Block Party at The Strand Hotel!
When the outdoor stage wraps, kick on upstairs at Horzions, the Strand's brand new NightClub — featuring Rockafellas, Aria, Darb and Lucko keeping the dance floor lit ‘til late.
One stage. All day. Non-stop music. Fireworks. Good Vibes. Don’t miss it!
Let’s get stranded. 🌴
