The Battle of the ROCK Bands is an annual school Rock festival organised and hosted by Clairvaux MacKillop College. In early October 2026, we had 30 High School bands performing over three nights. In conjunction with The Triffid, we are delighted to offer the Most Outstanding Band from each night (plus the judges' wildcard entry) the opportunity to perform live at our ENCORE Event on December 16

Performing at The Triffid in 2026 are:

• RhythM-City, from Marsden State High School

• Niamh and the Pacemakers, from the Franciscan Combined Colleges

• Cascade, from Clairvaux MacKillop College

• Exit 24, from John Paul College

Featuring outstanding performances from across the best of what Queensland's school music program has to offer, this night is not to be missed!
