Overview
Ahoy there! Riverboats Music Festival will be held once more along the banks of the Murray where you can dance under the towering red gums to your heart's content. This year, the outdoor amphitheatre will see the likes of The Cat Empire, Tim Finn, Paul Dempsey, The Basics, Wagons, Dan Kelly’s Dream Band gracing the stage, and with Rockwiz’s own Brian Nankervis set as MC, you’re in for some good chat between sets.
The festival is about a two-and-a-half hour drive from Melbourne, but there are plenty of accommodation options including riverside camping, hotels, B&Bs and houseboats. The good people at RMF offer their accommodation recommendations here, and for $110 these three-day festival tickets are an absolute steal. Plus, any festival that organises a massive festival breakfast at the local bakery for their punters is pretty darn lovely in our book.
