Description

Each year, one of Australia’s biggest country music festivals brings thousands together in Queensland’s Amamoor State Forest for an unforgettable experience.

But there’s one challenge: the Muster is held deep in the forest, surrounded by mountains and normally without mobile coverage. So how do you keep organisers, volunteers and festivalgoers connected? That’s where Optus steps in.

For over 20 years, Optus has deployed a temporary mobile tower at the Gympie Music Muster — providing essential connectivity, supporting event safety, and helping families, farmers and friends stay in touch across the long weekend.

In this video, hear the unique, behind‑the‑scenes story of how the partnership began, why reliable regional coverage matters, and how temporary infrastructure helps bring one of Australia’s most iconic country music events to life.
