After Beach Music winds down and the festival fireworks light up the night sky on Friday 8pm, the celebrations are set to continue.

Bloom Festival will keep the party bouncing beachside, with the Reef Bar hosting a special DJ packed event in partnership with Bomba Events.

‍

The lineup includes Spanish techno DJ Jorch Jungle, who is currently touring Australia, and hard techno and bounce DJ Zuero. Adding to the experience, E.Motion will present Hypno Mandala and Buugeng Flow performances, while Inertia will showcase a mix of flow arts and movement.  

Things slow down on Sunday afternoon with the SOLLOS Sunday Session, running from 2pm to 6pm on the Airlie Beach Foreshore.

‍

Hosted by SOLLOS, the tropical Queensland agave farm that has grown Australia's first commercial Blue Weber agave, the session is a chance to relax by the water with live music and the farm's signature Australian Margarita.

Whitsunday musicians Pluto Tango and Chris Booroff will bring the afternoon's entertainment with cool acoustics.

Pluto Tango's mix of blues, folk, rock and contemporary music offers an easy soundtrack for a Sunday afternoon on the foreshore. With soulful vocals and a relaxed style, the Whitsunday act has become a popular choice at local venues and events.

With years of performing around the region, Chris Booroff has become one of the Whitsundays' best-known local musicians. His blend of blues, rock and roots, paired with warm vocals and an easy stage presence, makes him a natural fit to help round out the festival weekend.

Closing out the Great Barrier Reef Festival weekend, Australian indie favourites The Jungle Giants will bring infectious anthems to Magnums Hotel for the official Sunday night after party.  

‍

Renowned for energetic live performances, the Brisbane band has built a loyal following with hits including She's a Riot, Heavy Hearted and Feel the Way I Do. Their appearance promises a memorable finish to the 25th annual festival weekend.
