Under The Awning
Under The Awning is back for a third round!
The sun-soaked family afternoon is excited to deliver another line up of rollicking good times featuring the free-range bluegrass stylings of Midnight Chicken, folk-rock collective Woodenbox with a Fistful of Fivers and the finger picked melodies of Bree Rusev.
The much-loved psych-country with a splash of bluegrass event takes place under the Civic Theatre's awning and has previously hosted the likes of Skyscraper Stan & The Commission Flats, Magpie Diaries, Dave Wells, Georgia Mulligan and many more.
Kids are free with a paying adult, and there is lots of room outdoors for families and all lovers of live music.
Great Southern Nights is a celebration of live music. NSW Government through Destination NSW and in partnership with ARIA, aims to stimulate the live music, entertainment and hospitality sectors through a line-up of live gigs from household names, emerging talent and grassroots local acts across key NSW districts.
