Getting there

Here Comes The Sun Torquay Edition is located at Torquay Common, on the corner
of Bell Street and Geelong Rd, Torquay. It’s a five minute walk from the main
Torquay shops.
Here Comes The Sun – Torquay is designed to be accessed primarily via public
transport and dedicated event services due to extremely limited parking availability in
Torquay and surrounding coastal areas.

Dedicated Event Coach Services

Dedicated event coaches will be operating with direct drop-off and pick-up close to the event site.

Services will run from:

Melbourne – Carlton Gardens
Geelong Railway Station
Waurn Ponds Railway Station

Coach tickets can be purchased at the same time as your event ticket via the Oztix website.
These services are the most reliable and recommended way to travel to and from the festival.

Public Transport

Public bus services operate to Torquay from Geelong and surrounding areas.

Patrons travelling via public transport should plan their journey using the Public Transport Victoria Journey Planner, which provides up-to-date routes, connections and travel times:

https://transport.vic.gov.au/journey

Please note due to Easter that public services may not operate to standard timetables and may be busy on event day - allow extra travel time where possible.

Ride Share, Drop-Off & Active Transport

Where possible, we encourage:

Ride share

Drop-off / pick-up arrangements

Walking or cycling for local residents

Dedicated drop-off areas will be in place. Please follow all signage and traffic management directions on the day.

Parking

There is no public event parking available at the site. Local streets and car parks are heavily restricted and actively managed. We strongly encourage patrons not to drive to the event.
We are working with local transport operators to provide a car park shuttle service from selected car parks in surrounding areas. These services are designed to reduce congestion within the Torquay township and provide a safer, more efficient way for patrons who need to travel by car to access the event.
Shuttle routes, operating times and designated pick-up and drop-off locations will be announced closer to the event and published on our website and social media channels.

What time does the magic start?

Gates open at 2:00pm with the first act kicking off at 2:15pm.

We'll be all done by 10pm so you can be snuggled up in bed by midnight (not guaranteed).

Venue Info

Queen Elizabeth Park sits right by the beach in the heart of the Coolangatta - the perfect backdrop for a day of live music by the ocean.

As a coastal park, shade is limited, so come prepared with a hat, sunscreen and beach-friendly clothing.

Inside the festival you’ll find FOOD VANS catering to a range of dietary needs, TOILETS, and a FULLY STOCKED BAR to keep the good times rolling.

There’ll also be a MERCH TENT, FIRST AID, and FREE DRINKING WATER available - bring an empty reusable bottle to refill and you’re good to go.
