The event, held on the lawns of Mole Creek Hotel, hosts some of the best tribute bands in Australia.
Co-proprietor of Mole Creek Hotel Doug Westbrook said he was excited for the 2022 line-up which includes BABBA: A Tribute to ABBA, Rewind 80s, The Blues Brothers Revival, Dave Hawkins, Adam Page, and Tristan Webb & Friends.
"The headliner we have got is BABBA. They are the greatest ABBA tribute band in Australia, if not the world," he said.
There will be prizes on the day for the best dressed ABBA fans, and Mr Westbrook said people were welcome to also dress up in outfits from the '80s.
"We aim [the event at] baby boomers because there are so many other events for the young people. We thought there was a gap in the market for baby boomers," he said.
This year, the event will only be held on one day, instead of two like last year. The decision came down to logistics.
"Things are looking pretty good with the new [COVID-19 event framework] being a little bit easier than what they were last March. We are limited to 2000 people," Mr Westbrook said.
The event welcomes dancing and includes food and beverage vans. It also acts as a fundraiser for Rotary Tasmania.
"We hope to raise about $35,000 like we did last year," Mr Westbrook said.
A Day at the Creek will be held on February 26, 2022. For more information visit adayatthecreek.com.au.
