At Bee Gees Way in Redcliffe, the familiar songs of one of the world’s best-known musical groups are set to return in an unexpected form, as the public is invited to join Moreton Bay’s first Bee Gees kazoo flash mob.

A Kazoo Chorus For Bee Gees Way

Redcliffe’s Bee Gees Way is preparing for a musical moment with a difference, as residents and visitors are invited to become part of Moreton Bay’s first Bee Gees kazoo flash mob.

The free public performance will be held from 9:30am to 10:00am on Sunday, 21 June 2026, at Bee Gees Way on Redcliffe Parade. Open to all ages, the event is aimed at everyone from experienced kazoo players to people who simply want to try something new.

Rather than presenting the Bee Gees’ music as a traditional concert, the flash mob will turn the public space into a temporary kazoo orchestra. Participants will perform familiar Bee Gees classics using one of the most accessible instruments, creating a light-hearted tribute in a location already closely connected with the group’s story.

Those joining the flash mob are encouraged to bring their own kazoo, as instruments may not be available on the day.

Redcliffe’s Bee Gees Connection Takes Centre Stage

Bee Gees Way has long served as a Redcliffe tribute to the Bee Gees. Established along the Redcliffe foreshore in 2013, the laneway gives residents and visitors a place to revisit the group’s connection to the area.

The kazoo flash mob adds a participatory twist to that setting. Instead of simply visiting the tribute site, the public will be able to help fill it with music, turning Bee Gees Way into a shared performance space for the morning.

The event also coincides with Make Music Day, an international celebration where free live music is performed in public places across 120 countries.

Workshops Will Help Participants Tune In

A series of kazoo workshops will be held across Moreton Bay before the Redcliffe performance, giving participants a chance to learn the basics, practise performance cues and work through a medley of Bee Gees songs.

The workshops begin at Albany Creek Library on Saturday, 06 June 2026, from 11:30am to 1:30pm, followed by Strathpine Library on Tuesday, 09 June 2026, from 5:30pm to 7:30pm.

Further sessions will be held at Burpengary Library on Saturday, 13 June 2026, from 11:00am to 12:30pm; Redcliffe Library on Friday, 19 June 2026, from 5:00pm to 7:00pm; Caboolture Regional Art Gallery on Saturday, 20 June 2026, from 10:30am to 12:30pm; and Bribie Island Seaside Museum on Saturday, 20 June 2026, from 1:00pm to 2:30pm.

The workshops are designed to help participants build confidence before the flash mob. Attendees may bring their own kazoo, while some instruments will be available at the workshops on a first-come, first-served basis.

Part Of A Wider Month Of Music

The Redcliffe kazoo flash mob is part of Make Music Month, a June program featuring free events, live performances, workshops, jam sessions and music activities across galleries, museums, libraries and other venues.

The program spans a wide mix of styles and experiences, from rock, reggae, jazz and folk to hip hop, R&B, classical and contemporary music. It also includes songwriting workshops, interactive children’s sessions, choir performances, library concerts and gallery-based music experiences.

Redcliffe is among the locations hosting several music activities during the month, including events at Redcliffe Library, Redcliffe Museum, Redcliffe Art Gallery and Redcliffe Entertainment Centre.

The flash mob brings the focus back to the group that helped shape the site’s identity. With kazoos in hand, participants will help transform the laneway into a brief, playful and public celebration of music, place and community participation.

A Pokemon Paradise

Launched in 2016, Pokemon GO took the world by storm with its augmented reality gameplay. Eight years later, it’s still making waves, and nowhere is this more evident than in Redcliffe. This 38 square kilometre area boasts an impressive 140 gyms, making it a dense playground for trainers of all levels.

The peninsula’s layout is particularly conducive to gameplay. Points of interest are thoughtfully spaced out, allowing players to move easily from one location to another. The beautiful beachfront adds a scenic backdrop to your Pokemon adventures, combining the thrill of the hunt with the relaxation of coastal views.

This sense of community extends beyond organised events. Local players emphasise that newcomers shouldn’t hesitate to socialise with fellow trainers.

This fusion of pop culture and local history creates a unique experience for players, encouraging them to explore and appreciate the area’s heritage while hunting for rare Pokemon.

Almost every sign, painting, mural, or historical location in Redcliffe has the potential to become a Pokemon GO hub. This integration not only enhances the game but also promotes local tourism and appreciation of the area’s cultural significance.

Whether you’re a seasoned trainer or new to the world of Pokemon GO, the Redcliffe peninsula offers an unparalleled experience. With its abundant gyms, picturesque settings, and welcoming community, it’s no wonder that players consider this coastal gem one of the best places to play in Australia.
