Flame Festival brings BBQ, country music and family fun back to Jimboomba
Logan City Council’s much-loved Flame BBQ & Music Festival returns to Jimboomba this September to serve up another afternoon of delicious fare and toe-tapping fun.
‘The big country day out’, on Saturday, 13 September, features last year’s crowd pleasers plus fresh new competitions such as the Battle of the Mullet and the Country Spouse Shout.
City of Logan Mayor Jon Raven says another record crowd is expected in 2025 after the festival attracted more than 8,000 people last year.
‘This year Flame is even bigger and better – promising a day of great music, brisket and barbecues,’ Mayor Raven says.
‘Bring the kids down for hours of free entertainment while you catch up with mates and celebrate everything country.
‘TikTok sensations Sienna Mallon and Jimmy Judge are jumping on the Flame train this year on the Chomp & Comp stage.
‘You can also experience the best of the region’s barbecue culture with next-level vendors and live cooking demonstrations.’
