The award-winning concert series Between the Tides is back in 2026 and has found a stunning new home on Ngaro Country at Airlie Beach along the sparkling Great Barrier Reef coastline. For three years, this one-of-a-kind event has brought together music, culture, and nature, and now it is stepping into an exciting new chapter.

Find your rhythm on The Reef as some of Australia’s most celebrated musicians take to the stage against the stunning backdrop of the Whitsunday coast. Headlined by Boy & Bear, whose soaring harmonies fill the air and lift across the foreshore, the music flows seamlessly from one performance to the next. Jem Cassar-Daley follows with soulful songs that drift over the sand, drawing you in with every note. Mid Drift carries the feeling onward with intimate, heartfelt melodies that seem to ripple with the waves. Tjaka sparks a surge of energy, blending beats, rap, and didgeridoo in a way that makes the crowd move together. Georgia Corowa carving out a unique sound that blends honesty, culture and acoustic simplicity. Rounding out the lineup, local singer Kaylee West brings warm, folk-inspired songs shaped by the ocean and open road. Melbourne based DJ, Miss Katalyna is also joining the line-up with her house music, Pasifika edits, and dance classics to bring lift the vibes throughout the afternoon.
