Raft Up 4 Life

Join us for the Southern Hemisphere’s largest floating music festival: Raft Up 4 Life!

In support of Gotcha4Life, we’re excited to bring you the iconic RMYC Raft Up 4 Life, a one-of-a-kind event on Saturday, March 7, 2026, raising vital funds for mental fitness programs. Set against the stunning backdrop of Refuge bay, this festival promises an unforgettable day on the water with incredible live music, a vibrant community atmosphere, and a floating prawn and oyster bar serving fresh seafood straight to your boat.

Why it matters: Raft Up 4 Life shines a light on the importance of mental fitness for both men and women. Our goal is to raise $100,000 to fund programs in five schools, helping Gotcha4Life deliver life-changing mental health education and support.
Don’t miss out! It’s more than a festival, it’s a movement. Join us for an amazing day of music, food, and connection, all for a cause that truly matters. Get on board and make a difference!
