Originally based in Mackay, Be Social Fest is heading to the Cairns Showgrounds for its fourth instalment with more than 22 international and local acts in tow, including headliners Matt Corby, Bliss n Eso, Baauer, and Petit Biscuit. Director Michael Delaney says the relocation is all about making the festival more accessible and memorable. “Cairns is already a tourism hot spot, with direct flights in and out of every major city. Ultimately, we want to put it firmly on the map as the home of a major national festival,” he said. “If the people of Cairns feel ownership of Be Social Fest, it will keep evolving.
