With their toes a-tappin’, their Akubra’s atop their heads and their hands in the air, country music fans of all ages enjoyed three days of country music at the 2022 NQ’s Rock’n Country Music Festival over the weekend.
Over 40 of Australia and New Zealand’s best country musicians took to the stage at the Mackay Showgrounds for the third installment of the festival.
Icons of the genre Lee Kernaghan, Gina Jeffreys, Beccy Cole, Adam Harvey and Fanny Lumsden all delivered show-stopping sets to the passionate crowd, as well as local legends Graeme Connors, Luke Geiger and Bella Mackenzie.
Also featured throughout the weekend was line dancing, karaoke, Q&As and more.
NQ’s Rock’n Country is a supporter of Variety, raising over $40,000 for the children’s charity at this year’s festival.
