Groundwater Country Music Festival (CMF) gathers some of the best country artists in the industry for three days of FREE live music on the Gold Coast. Following the massive success of previous years – where the festival brought together close to 60 artists, 135 shows, and thousands of country music lovers – Groundwater CMF has proven itself as a standout event on the Australian Festival calendar. Set only steps away from the iconic golden beaches of Broadbeach, there’s no other country music festival quite like it.
