About Big Red Bash
The Big Red Bash is an annual music festival held in the Simpson Desert, 35 kilometres west of Birdsville in Queensland, Australia. The music is mostly Australian Rock. The festival emphasizes fundraising. The first Big Red Bash occurred in 2013. In 2023, the event drew more than 11,000 visitors to the red centre. The Big Red Bash was founded by Greg Donovan who continues to organise the event today. It is marketed as the world's most remote music festival.
