Established and emerging Australian musicians and bands will be performing at Tullamarine’s URBNSURF in the lead up to summer.

The surf park’s Acoustic Music Series is funded by the federal government’s Live Music Australia program and aims to support original Australian live music.

Jakob Kagan and Danika will perform on Saturday, December 3, followed by Norwood and Jarryn (East Bound Buzz) on Sunday, December 4.

A range of special guests, yet to be announced, will perform on Saturday, December 10.

URBNSURF events manager Angus Johnston said attendees will be able to kick back and watch the waves roll in as incredible tunes serenade them into the night.

“Being able to pair and celebrate great Australian talent with a great Australian past-time is one of the best parts of our warmer months at URBNSURF,” he said.

URBNSURF chief executive Damon Tudor said the surf park was delighted to be able to support live music.

“These events really show how inclusive and accessible surfing and the park is, there’s something for everyone whether you want to get in the waves or enjoy our new upgraded space in The Court with some awesome food, drink and live music right next to you,” he said.

The event is free for in-park guests, with $5 spectator passes available. The first set kicks off at 6pm.
