Event organiser Geoff Baguley says, “The line-up this year is massive, not only do we have some of the artists that were able to perform last year but we also have some those that were unable to attend due to COVID border restrictions at the time, plus many more! After everything that was thrown at us in 2020 and 2021, thanks to COVID, we really made the impossible happen and we are ready to do it again.”

The three-day event will be supporting Variety - the Children’s Charity which supports kids and families who are facing challenges through sickness, disadvantage or living with a disability.

Baguley adds, “After all of the hurdles and lower numbers than originally expected, we still were able to raise $31,000 in 2021 for Variety, imagine what we will do next year with nothing stopping us from reaching our target of $100,000.”
