VALLEY BLUES FESTIVAL - Relax at the State's premier Blues

This provides full value for patrons attending who may wish to partake in a more laid-back family friendly afternoon session and of those who want to crank things up and rage on after dark. The festival day also includes a large range of stalls with food, music, clothing, bar facilities, a motorbike show and shine, free overnight camping facilities and Sunday breakfast on sale for those who camp. The festival has showcased some of the best in Australian Blues and Roots music talent, with both home grown Tassie acts and great mainland names - there has even been international performances and this year will be no exception. Starts 1:00pm Saturday and finishes 1:00am Sunday. Phone: (03) 6428-2239
