Be Social Backs Community

Be Social Fest went off with a bang in June and the good vibrations are still being felt throughout the community.

The rapidly growing music festival brought Grinspoon, San Cisco, Mallrat and more to Mackay, providing an epic day of live music while raising funds for a good cause.

Festival organisers recently made a donation of $7,548 to Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) North Australia, thanking RMHC, McDonalds Mackay and staff members Samantha, Sarah and Niki for their support of the event.

Posting on social media, Be Social Fest wrote: “One of our core values is the commitment to giving back to the Mackay Community in various ways.

“As one of the largest non-touring music events in NQ, we have the opportunity to engage with the community on multiple levels, and we take great pride in being a part of its growth.”

The post went on to thank those who attended Be Social Fest as well as major sponsors LiSTNR, Mackay Regional Council, Queensland Tourism, Hawk Hire, Queensland Mental Health Commission, MECC, The Dispensary and City Fitness.

“We are deeply appreciative of everyone’s involvement and assistance in making this event and contribution a reality.

“Together, we are making a positive impact on our community, and we look forward to continuing our journey of giving back and growing an event that Mackay can call its own!”
