Happy Daze is a celebration of eclectic electronic and live music, set in a colourful and surreal environment where both the climate and atmosphere are warm. Over the past few years this festival has grown from strength to strength, leaving anticipation high for the next instalment. Situated in a magical landscape between the Whitsundays and Mackay in Central Queensland, the sub-tropical setting is the perfect complement to the diverse music the festival has to offer. A full weekend of amazing sounds including glitch hop, techno, psytrance, breaks, live bands, drum and bass and much more. The range of acts, flavours, spaces and activities on offer are sure to make this landmark event a spectacle. Although the music is a central focus, it is only one piece of the puzzle that shapes the experience. This otherworldly landscape captivates with seamless décor that transforms the space into a surreal paradise. Complementing the atmosphere even further are the elements of delicious food, market stalls, a children’s space and enticing workshops.

This year’s festival holds some very special surprises, so watch this space for all the upcoming information on Happy Daze 2019. Until then, stay safe and big love from the Mushroom Valley Team.

ABOUT

Happy Daze Festival is more then just a party, its a community, a place where you can grow, learn and connect with other like minded people. A place where you can come and be revitalised and re-energised to go out and take on the “real” world. There are plenty of workshops for the young and old in the healing village as well as massage and reiki.

Over the weekend the music will range through many genres. On the friday night it will be a funk, glitch and drum and bass session then saturday night your more traditional techno, progressive and psytrance, with diversity over the weekend being the main flavour.

There are a few things we at Happy Daze are extremely passionate about. One thing is providing a safe and respectful environment for the whole family from young to old. Another big one is  LEAVE NO TRACE.

Each year we get better and better and so do you, so lets make this year even more amazing by doing a few simple things:

  1. Think about what it is you are bringing to Happy Daze this year, and remember you have to take it ALL home with you…so REDUCE YOUR WASTE
  2. Have seperate buckets or bags in your own camps for compost/cans,recyclables/plastics. Mixing your food waste with the rest of your garbage is messy and creates evil gases that are destroying the planet!
  3. Bring plenty of water in large reusable containers, avoid single use ANYTHING 🙂
  4. Use cigarette butt bins ALWAYS, even in camp. 
  5. Collect all of those little bits of clean plastic and stuff them into a plastic juice or water bottle, use a tent peg to compact and you will make a strong plastic brick that can be used in earthship building foundations and will save on space tremendously!! Its true look it up! 
  6. Bring your own plate, bowl, mug, cup, cutlery and reusable straw and use these instead of single use items. You can take them to the food stalls too, even though the stalls use bio stuff you can still avoid these and reduce even more waste. 
  7. Before you leave your camp spot PLEASE have your own little emu parade and pick up all of those tiny little things like ring pulls, string, pegs, sequins, feathers wink emoticon who knows it could be anything but what ever it is it doesn’t belong on the ground. Please take it home with you.
  8. Make sure you dispose of your rubbish responsibly on the way out of the festival. Take it home, to the nearest town or preferably to a recycling centre.
