With live music, fabulous food and drinks, and a funky art market, there’s no better place to chill out and get your groove on.
MY FEST Committee Member, Ben Ceccato said, “MY FEST is all about showcasing young, local talent in a relaxed festival atmosphere. There is a huge amount of talent in the region and we have a great lineup of fantastic young vocalists and musicians from across the Riverina performing at this fun, inclusive festival. There’s a whole range of music styles but it is all fresh and funky and will have you tapping your toes and getting into the groove.”

To add to the cool – video artist Jason Richardson will light up the Telecom building with his dazzling projections which will respond to the fabulous sounds emanating from the brand new stage.
The night will finish with a heart stopping, explosive fire show with incredible stunts, dance and acrobatic feats, and exhilarating pyrotechnics from hardcore parkour outfit DMC and XCITE entertainment.
