Overview
It's been a tough year for music festivals. Our hearts have been freshly broken after the cancellations of both Harvest and Homebake Festivals, and if there's anything that can put them back together it's Cherry Fest — Cherry Bar's one-day music festival still kicking strong in its seventh year.
Cherry Bar is a Melbourne institution. Steadfast in its rightful spot on AC/DC Lane, this place has been the feeding ground for Melbourne rockers for the past 13 years. Well-known for its Thursday Soul nights and the fact it's every touring band's afterparty of choice, this bar is so goddamned cool Noel Gallagher once offered to buy it.
Over two stages from 12 - 9.30pm, Cherry will host a total of 13 bands including The Bellrays (pictured), The Powder Monkeys, and Money For Rope. Cherry Bar owner and booker, James Young says it was easy to figure it all out. "Turns out people want to go to music festivals with a modest ticket price, modest capacity, great line-up, easy access to cheap booze and be part of an audience made up of genuine music lovers."
