"The event offers something for everyone and echoes our new ‘Free Concerts, Beach Vibes' theme. We are thrilled to have such an exciting and diverse lineup of free activities at the event in addition to world-class surfing. To have artists like Bishop Briggs, CeeLo Green, Beach Weather and Lovely the Band performing and using their voices to help promote Super Girl's empowerment platform is absolutely incredible."
