Black Mountain Unplugged - BMUP 15

Aug 14, 2026 12:00 AM to Aug 16, 2026 11:59 PM

It's bigger (but still small comparatively) - it has a main stage and a rainforest stage (the Tartree Stage), it has art, food and clothes stalls, it has more performers and runs for longer. it has the infamous DRAG VOLLEY BALL WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP, it also has the rather mad SUNDAY NIGHT of the Question or Riff show and the closing Vinyl Discotheque.

Black Mountain Unplugged - Outbakistan

Oct 02, 2026 12:00 AM to Oct 04, 2026 11:59 PM

Is our culmination gig. The hectic year can finally rest and begin the wind-down around the shady and cool late dry season of the Tar Tree Stage, as we showcase the essence of the Far Far North. It will be small and cosy, comfy and chilled (and who knows what else). We are really excited about this! Getting flashbacks already of the original BMUP all those years ago.
