Queenscliff Music Festival Announces New Special Ferry Sessions And Releases Set Times

by the partae

With just one month to go  until the gates of Queenscliff Music Festival are flung open across the weekend of 28–30 November on Wadawurrung Country in the historic seaside town of Queenscliff, Victoria, the festival  continues to grow bigger and better as it today releases festival set times and adds special event  ferry sessions..

The festival has unveiled two brand-new Special Event Ferry Sessions aboard the Peninsula Princess, with intimate live performances that take audiences on a 40-minute cruise across Port Phillip Bay, pairing live music with coastal views and a complimentary beverage.

While the already announced six regular ferry sessions are open to all festival ticketholders, those wanting to secure this unique experience can do so through these two new special sessions as they are separately ticketed.

On Saturday 29 November at 1:30pm, the Peninsula Princess will set sail with Skyscraper Stan, one of Australia’s most captivating lyricists and performers, known for his razor-sharp storytelling and magnetic live energy.

On Sunday 30 November at 1:30pm, audiences will be treated to Minor Gold, the award-winning folk-rock duo of Dan Parsons and Tracy McNeil, whose effortless harmonies and heartfelt songs have won fans across Australia and the world.

Tickets to both Special Event Sessions are $25 bf and include a complimentary beverage on board.

And if that isn’t enough to get excited over, the festival set times for the three-day festival are now live so everyone can start planning their Queenscliff Music Festival experience.

SET TIMES

Queenscliff Music Festival Director Claire Stickland, said that the new Ferry sessions were added due to overwhelming response for the first, festival-based sessions:
“We’ve been overwhelmed by the response to the Ferry as a floating venue. If you absolutely don’t want to miss out, these special ferry sessions are for you and guarantee you a spot on  this unique experience.”

All ferry sessions run throughout the weekend, offering an unforgettable perspective of Queenscliff, from the water, with live music, salty air and spectacular bay views.

Throughout the weekend you’ll also be able to experience the beautiful Bellarine right within the festival – with craft beers, boutique wines, cocktails, gourmet produce, including pastries from Ket Baker and oysters and cheese platters from TARRA Queenscliff. Or take the time to stroll the historic streetscape or sparkling harbour of Queenscliff and drop into one of the local cafes for your morning fix.

The region’s creative community will bring interactive and engaging experiences to the Festival, with a pub choir experience from Chorus Club, cool projections of local flora & fauna from Cosmic Wilderness or a mass jam session from Imaginary Millions.
