What a weekend 🤘

The Screaming Jets had us all hoarse from singing, and every single band, you absolutely left everything on that stage. We see you, we felt it and we thank you!!!

Designed and delivered by Open Eyre Events this event has been a long time in the making. For years, we’ve been working towards bringing something like this to Whyalla, and landing the closing weekend of Unearth Festival 2026 felt like the perfect fit.. made possible with the support of Whyalla City Council

Delivering events is always a balance of risk and reward. You back your vision, you put it all on the line and you hope the community connects with it the way you imagined.

Whyalla...you showed up!! You brought the weather, the energy and the vibes. And our reward? Seeing a sea of happy faces right across the festival.

To all our sponsors, vendors and contractors.. BIG thank you.
Your support, professionalism and willingness to get in and make it happen is what keeps events like this moving. We know what goes on behind the scenes, and without you, it would be that bit harder (and a lot less fun)!

So… what do you reckon? Should we run it back in 2027?
We’re keen if you are 🤘
