The annual Harvest Festival brings a little bit of country to Kingston with top bluegrass, rockabilly and country artists set to perform on Saturday 7 May at Bicentennial Park in Chelsea.
This year’s event, marking Harvest Festival’s 10th anniversary, will be headlined by Stonefield just back from their successful US Tour. The four sisters hailing from rural Victoria won the Triple J Unearthed High contest in 2010 and have been growing from strength to strength on the international festival circuit.
The event will also feature:
• a host of performers including The Age Hall of Fame musician Australian music icon Mick Thomas plus The Iain Archibald Band presenting their unique brand of country-rock.
• up-and-coming local acts presenting acoustic sets at the Jam Café.
• Silent Disco and films from 7.00 pm – 8.30
• a Green Hub showcasing innovations in sustainable practices to live a better, greener life.
• workshops, market stalls, locally produced food, licensed bar and amusement rides.
The 2016 Harvest Festival has moved from its traditional location at Roy Dore Reserve due to construction of the Carrum Family and Children’s Centre and will instead take place at Chelsea’s Bicentennial Park. The 2016 Harvest Festival is proudly supported by Quest Cheltenham, Ray White Patterson Lakes and PBS.
