The Prairie Oysters will also rock the stage on Saturday night.  While predominantly Country, their music also cross over to Rockabilly, Southern Rock and Blues.  In August 2007, the Prairie Oysters were awarded the Les Keats Memorial Award for Most Popular Country Music Band 2006-2007 by the Country Music Guild of Australasia.

the-jelly-bugs.jpgThe Jellybugs, (a high energy children’s music band with infectious music, children participation, that creates imagination)will be on hand to entertain the junior members of our audience. 
The Jellybugs is an exciting Melbourne based children's music band incorporating music, drama and dance into an educational and fun filled performance. Their music caters for children from ages 1 to 6 years, while mum and dad can enjoy it also. The show is fun, vibrant and when kids participate, they thoroughly enjoy themselves!

 

For something different, don’t miss the excitement of the Edge Aerobatics Airshow.  No-one in Australia can fly and out-perform the brilliance of this pilot and his aerobatic monoplane... Pip Borrman and his Edge 540 are a dynamic team that will not be forgotten quickly by any trained enthusiast or untrained audience. It's a performance that never leaves your sight with breathtaking manoeuvres at every moment, plenty of noise and smoke and loads of torque!

A must see will be the performing Circus Dogs - this is a high energy, action packed comedy show.   Kids will love the hilarious hounds and adults will appreciate the highly skilled magnificent mutts.  These dishlickers are without a doubt the most talented in Australia.  They would be at home in any of the big Circuses of the world.  Not your average fleabags!!
