This Saturday the ever popular Goulburn Vibes will be returning to Western Park for an evening of live music under the majestic red gums.
Music lovers will be entertained by internationally recognised artist Rory McKenna who will be joined at Goulburn Vibes with his friends, Cam Noble on the keyboard and epic sax player Kenny. Building a fusion of neo soul, jazz and R&B music with hip hop beats and vocal loops.
Representing our talented local music scene will be Ryan Gay and emerging act the Ludlow Twins supporting Rory McKenna.
Bringing the local flavours will be chow Town, Grill on Wheels and M&R Coffee Van, for attendees to enjoy some great fresh food and sweet treats. Caravan bar Grandpa Charlie will be collaborating with Tallis Wines and Mog Brewery to serve a selection of local beer and wines.
Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor, Cr Kim O’Keeffe is encouraging locals and visitors to attend this unique event.
“Goulburn Vibes is a specialty event only Shepparton and the Goulburn Valley can offer, our beautiful lake precinct and Goulburn River is the perfect setting to meet up with friends and family in the beautiful outdoors, bring a picnic rug and chairs and take in all the surroundings of the water, red gums and beautiful music,” Cr O’Keeffe said.
“This year we are excited to welcome our headline act Rory McKenna, it is wonderful Rory can travel to the region and share how amazing our community is with his large following of more than 90,000 Instagram followers and 800,000 Tik Tok fans.
“And we cannot forget our incredibly talented locals who have always supported Goulburn Vibes and out do themselves every year, this year we will be hearing from Ryan Gay and the Ludlow Twins.
“We hope visitors will enjoy what our region has to offer over the Easter long weekend and will take the opportunity to see a side of Greater Shepparton they have not experienced before.”
