BEATS, beanies and beers will land at the Aireys Pub tomorrow (Saturday, December 6) as the local venue raises vital funds for an important cause.<\/p>\n
Rock the Beanie will kick off at 1.30pm, welcoming people onto the indoor and outdoor stages for a day of music, community and\u00a0giving back.<\/p>\n
To make the event accessible to everyone, the Aireys Pub team has decided to make entry free and will raise funds for Carrie’s Beanies 4 Brain Cancer through donations.<\/p>\n
The chosen charity and cause \u2013 which works to raise vital funds in brains cancer research \u2013 is one close to the Aireys Pub team, who lost a friend to the disease.<\/p>\n
Aireys Pub marketing manager Lorcan O’Kelly said while trying to raise as much money as possible for the charity, they are also working to support local artists.<\/p>\n
“We’re trying to promote up-and-coming talent on the Surf Coast, as well as some staples, some crowd favorites that have been around for years.<\/p>\n
“We’ve got different acts and artists, all music, different styles, some will be kind of light, chill covers and then moving into a bit more rock as well.<\/p>\n
“We want people to know that there’s going to be live music all day, particularly on our outdoor stage, which is a big trailer that we pull out on our front lawn and people can sit out there on the tables.”<\/p>\n
The lineup will include performances from headliners and local band South Atlas whose music reflects the environment of the region.<\/p>\n
Also taking the stage for the event are Twin Flame, Atomic Entourage, Blue Earth and Riflebirds.<\/p>\n
Attendees are encouraged to head along for the day, dig deep and enjoy the entertainment while kicking back in the sunshine.<\/p>\n
