As WA's only not-for-profit DJ network, The Beat Collective is best known for shattering the peace & quiet of Dunsborough during one very special week in November. Since 2006, The Beat Collective's volunteers have programmed every aspect of the dance music tent at Dunsborough Leavers' Zone - and are proud to work together with the Office of Crime Prevention and WA Police to make Dunsborough Leavers the biggest party of the year.
"1 paddock, 5 nights, 10 DJs and 4500 school leavers!"
The fun doesn't stop there.
