Put on your dancing shoes and join The Smashing Bumpkins as they bring their high-energy bush dance party to RPAC!

From classic Australian bush dances to crowd-favourite grooves, this isn’t just a dance—it’s a floor-stomping, boot-scootin’ celebration!

You don’t need to know the moves; you just need to be ready to groove. The Smashing Bumpkins will guide you through easy-to-follow circle, line, and partner routines.

Leading the charge is multi-instrumentalist and chief bush dance caller Ben King, whose infectious energy gets everyone on their feet. On bass, Queensland Conservatorium graduate John Gynther delivers the irresistible rhythms, while seasoned musician David Klokman keeps the vibe alive with his stellar drumming. Rounding out the lineup is the extraordinary violinist Liz Young, whose electrifying performance adds a spark to every tune. Together, they’ll turn any room into a buzzing dance floor.

From the Gympie Music Muster to the Birdsville Races, The Smashing Bumpkins have wowed audiences across Australia and New Zealand. They’ve even smashed a Guinness World Record for the largest bush dance! Now it’s your turn to join the fun.

     

This project is supported by the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland.
