The second Broken Hill Mundi Mundi Bash live music festival welcomed around 8,000 music fans and outback adventurers for the three-day, all-ages, dog-friendly camping festival held from 18 – 20 August 2022.
Thousands of music lovers decamped to Broken Hill in the New South Wales outback to check out headliners Midnight Oil, Jimmy Barnes, Kasey Chambers and Missy Higgins alongside Aussie legends such as Ash Grunwald, Richard Clapton, Daryl Braithwaite and Jon Stevens plus Bjorn Again.
Punters were able to rock out on the same plains where Midnight Oil filmed their iconic Beds Are Burning video as well as being a key filming location for many scenes from the Mad Max movie franchise, including the latest Furiosa instalment featuring Chris Hemsworth.
Off-stage action included a range of wild and wacky outback activities from sand volleyball, sunrise yoga and dunny door painting through to scenic helicopter rides, camel rides and a Mundi’s Got Talent amateur singing contest.
The festival also staged several world-record attempts for The World’s Largest Nutbush dance and the World’s Largest Mad Max dress-up.
Broken Hill City Council reported that the inaugural Mundi Mundi Bash brought $3.5 million into Broken Hill in April 2022 alone, putting the festival well on track to exceed its forecasted visitor expenditure targets of $5.4 million over three years.
The Mundi Mundi Bash is the sister event to the Birdsville Big Red Bash held in July.
