Get Ready to Rave at Bunnings: Peking Duk and What So Not headlining an epic warehouse party you can't miss!

In a move that has DIY enthusiasts and music lovers alike buzzing with anticipation, Bunnings Warehouse, the beloved Australian hardware giant, has confirmed it will be transforming its utilitarian space into an electrifying rave venue. The announcement has come as a delightful surprise, proving that Bunnings is not only a place where you can pick up a new hammer or a pot of paint but also where you can let your hair down and dance to some thumping beats.

The concept of a Bunnings rave started as a playful fantasy on TikTok, where users remixed the retailer's iconic jingle into catchy dance tracks. The idea quickly gained traction, with millions of TikTokers expressing their eagerness to attend such an event. The power of social media has once again shown its strength, turning what began as a tongue-in-cheek suggestion into a full-blown viral campaign.


Now, Bunnings is set to 'give the people what they want' by hosting a warehouse bonanza that celebrates local music. The event, scheduled for late August, will feature an impressive lineup of Australian electronic music talent, including Peking Duk, What So Not, and Sydney DJ Kaila, who was instrumental in sparking the initial interest with his drum and bass remix of the Bunnings theme.

'We have loved seeing all Aussie music lovers across the country share their enthusiasm for a Bunnings rave,' a spokesperson for Bunnings said. 'So, it comes with great excitement to confirm that together with Peking Duk, What So Not and Kaila, we’ve found a way to give the people what they want – the Bunnings Warehouse Party is happening.'


The excitement was echoed by Peking Duk's Reuben Styles, who expressed his amazement at the overwhelming response from fans. 'The people have spoken and Bunnings have listened. We’re doing this. Y’all made this happen,' he said. The duo even teased the crowd by asking them to suggest a location for the party, highlighting the nationwide appeal of the event.

With close to 300 stores across Australia, Bunnings is keeping the exact location of the rave under wraps for now, but promises that more details are coming soon. The announcement has created a palpable buzz, and fans are advised to 'watch this space' for updates.

This unique event is a testament to the power of community and the unexpected ways in which brands can engage with their audience. It's also a reminder that age is just a number when it comes to enjoying life's pleasures. Whether you're a seasoned raver or just looking for a novel way to spend an evening, the Bunnings rave is shaping up to be an unforgettable experience.


So, dear members of the Seniors Discount Club, dust off your dancing shoes and prepare for a night of music and merriment. It's not every day that you get to rave in the aisles of a hardware store, surrounded by tools and timber. Keep an eye out for more information, and get ready to groove to the beat of hammers and drills turned into a symphony of electronic music.

Yeah righto you wouldn’t find me at one I think they are asking for trouble with this idea. It’ll be interesting to see what suburb takes this crazy idea on, with the youth of today it’s madness.👎
 
Wonder is we will hold one at the Bunnings I work at, probably not, probably only in bigger stores in metro areas.

I wouldn't shop at Bunnings, they are the scourge of all hardware stores. We had Kooringal hardware, Beale's hardware and Mitre 10 in WaggaBunnings reduced prices to wipe out both Kooringal and Beale's hardware, then moved 4ks across town to build across the road from Mitre 10 and slowly decimated Mitre 10 with reduced prices. The prices increased when there was no competion left. I think they are related to Spotlight, as they do the same in towns, wipe out the competikn and then prices increase ridiculously.

Bunnings is wholly owned by Wesfarmers while Spotlight is privately owned but have Anaconda and Harris Scarfe in their "portfolio".

Bunnings sell sledgehammers, axes and I'm not sure about machetes. Sounds like a potential delivery of blood and bone....
