Every July, Birdsville’s iconic Big Red Bash kicks off under the open skies of Australia’s Simpson Desert. Thousands of people from around Australia, and the world, head into the desert for the most remote concert on the planet.

Other than the bragging rights you’ll gain if you attend the Big Red Bash this year, which warrants celebrity status in its own right, can you claim that your insurer will be going to the Big Red Bash?

*Drum Roll*

This year Club 4X4 will join the journey to the Big Red Bash. (It’s a tough job, but somebody’s gotta do it)… And just wait till you see what we’ve got planned!

The Big Red Bash all starts with the journey. Whether you set out on a road trip, hop on a plane or jump on the Rock’n’Roll Charter Bus you’re in for an epic outback adventure. Birdsville’s concert is definitely off the beaten track – but that’s what makes it so special!

Whichever way you get there, you’ll have three nights under the stars, dancing to the sweet sounds of Aussie music legends as they rock the desert. And, there’s plenty of fun during the day too. You’ll find heaps of exciting activities to cross off your bucket list or keep the family entertained.

So, what are you waiting for? You’ve never had a better reason to get your family or friends together and head into the outback. Grab your camping gear, hook up the trailer or caravan or hire a tent. But don’t miss out on your chance to get down in the red dust at this fantastic all-ages Australian outback concert. Everyone’s invited. You can even bring your dog!

Don’t forget to add Club 4X4 insurance to your Pre-Touring Checklist to ensure that you are covered the whole way to the Big Red Bash and back.
