Chopperdog Productions is a boutique live music booking, programming and event production business founded in Far North Queensland in 2023. Built on 15 years of touring experience from the stage side of the industry, we connect world-class artists with audiences in some of Australia’s most unique tropical venues, from beachfront stages to rainforest distilleries.

We are the booking and artist liaison partner for Ellis Beach Bar & Grill, a 1,000-capacity beachside venue just north of Cairns, delivering major ticketed shows with national and international touring acts alongside a year-round local program. We also program regular live music for a selection of regional venues giving regional artists consistent paid work.

Our reach goes beyond the venues, from festival programming with Cairns Regional Council’s Live N Local program and the Stratford Sounds community festival, to grant writing, show production and content capture. With a deep network of agents, touring musicians and crews, we’re building a stronger, more sustainable live music ecosystem across FNQ.
