The legendary River Rocks returns, bringing together the loud, the proud, and the punk. It’s chaos, community and cold beers — everything we love about Geelong’s grittiest music tradition.

River Rocks Rehab

Can’t stop, won’t stop. River Rocks Rehab keeps the amps humming and the hangovers honest. Because one day of rock just isn’t enough.

Slide into something smoother with The Moonee Valley Drifters, bringing old-school Americana and country-soul charm to the BC stage.

Jungle Jim Smith

Wind it down (a little) with Jungle Jim Smith, whose gritty blues and rock ‘n’ roll spirit promise a perfect Sunday sesh soundtrack.

74KINGS (Rebirth Album Launch)

Friday 28 Nov

Wrapping the month with a bang, 74KINGS hit the stage to launch Rebirth — heavy, melodic, and built for the Barwon Club’s sticky floors and loyal crowd.

November’s got it all — punk legends, country crooners, local launches, and just the right amount of chaos. The Barwon Club’s still the beating heart of Geelong’s live scene — and November proves why.
