For the second consecutive year, Australia’s premiere country and roots music event, CMC ROCKS QLD, has completely sold out on the first day of on sale.
Music fans snapped up 21,000 weekend tickets this morning, which will make for a record attendance of over 60,000 people across the three-day event. Ticket holders have secured their chance to experience the hottest country music acts from Australia and around the world across four days, in a unique festival setting in March 2019.
Responding to overwhelming demand, festival organisers have once again increased capacity for the 2019 event, to be headlined by diamond-selling global superstars Florida Georgia Line on their return CMC Rocks visit.

“We’re constantly blown away by how passionate and loyal CMC Rocks fans are”, said Festival Director Jeremy Dylan. “Whether you’re joining us for the first time or you’ve been with the festival since day one, we can’t wait to welcome you to Ipswich next March as part of our biggest sold out crowd to date.
