Round up your mates and get ready for a massive afternoon at The Straddie Hotel featuring Shannon Noll!

Joining us for the day, we'll have our mates from the Cow Girl Surf Club team to bring the country vibes and show you how to rope like a pro, as well as the legend NICKA35 jumping on the decks to get you moving to some country beats. Ice-cold travlas, line dancing, mechanical bull riding, giveaways, activities, live tunes and more – all afternoon from 1:30pm.

There’s plenty happening all day, so crack out the brimmed hats, get your boots on and come join us on the iconic North Stradbroke Island.

We've also got a couple more surprises tucked up our sleeves, so keep an eye on our socials to be the first to know...
