During the recent launch of the 30th tour, Woodfordia Inc. director Bill Hauritz commented that this festival is “delivered with love”.
Halls of every shape and size, up and down the coast will fling open their doors for an evening of music, cakes, tea and neighbours.
Famous for its larger-than-life music festivals, Woodfordia Inc. presents a program that showcases musicians from the folk music mecca of Prince Edward Island, in Canada, and from just down the road in Byron Bay, New South Wales.
Gabrielle Kerr will open the Mt Mee show, with melodies echoing blues, folk and rock which tell tales of life, death and everything in between.
Pre-show supper will be available at the Hall from 5.30-6.30pm, catered by Mt See State School P&C and Mt See Hall.
Options include:
Grazing box for two – $20
Butter chicken, rice, & naan for one – $15
