Peking Duk is planning a party at Bunnings hardware store.

And the Australian electronic music duo’s frontmen, Reuben Styles and Adam Hyde, appeared on The Project on Friday to share some of the details.

The couple teased turning the party into a full-blown music festival with several rooms with different themes.

“I mean there are no limits. It could be a festival with several rooms. The garden centre where the ambient music plays,” said Adam.

“Plants are the least dangerous thing to dance on in the whole venue,” Reuben said with a laugh.

“For us, the most obvious thing is that it’s like a parking lot, but then we also want to have all the tools and plants there,” he added.

The couple have yet to share where the event will be held, but Adam did share his preference for Alexandria Bunnings in Sydney.

“Alexandria Bunnings is beautiful,” she joked, but said there were “so many” options, including locations in Brisbane.

The iconic retail destination will host the country’s first “Bunnings rave” at one of its massive warehouses in August, following a sudden viral TikTok campaign calling for a tech extravaganza at one of its locations.

Peking Duk’s TikTok channel spearheaded the initiative, with the pair remixing the famous Bunnings TV advert jingle into a rave track and dancing wildly.

In a recent video posted on the channel, Peking Duk confirmed that the party would be taking place.

“The people have spoken and Bunnings has listened. We’re doing it. You guys made this happen. Oh my God, we’re having a party with Bunnings,” Reuben said.

“We don’t know where yet. So pick a location, pick a state, pick a Bunnings, where do you want to have this party?

“Where are we going to do this? We’re going to party, we’re going to have fun.”

A Bunnings spokeswoman confirmed the party will take place sometime in August.

“We’ve loved seeing all the Australian music lovers from across the country share their excitement for a rave at Bunnings,” the spokeswoman said.

‘It’s with great excitement that we can confirm that, together with Peking Duk, What So Not and Kaila, we have found a way to give the people what they want – the Bunnings Warehouse Party is taking place at the end of August.

More details coming soon. Stay tuned.

The wild TikTok campaign began with 19-year-old music producer Kaila posting a video with the caption “petition to organise a massive rave at Bunnings Warehouse” and a remixed Bunnings dance track.

Peking Duk then followed up with their own remix, which sees the pair gushing over each other in a Bunnings store, in the aisles and on an escalator.
