Venues in "the top end of town", on McCrae Street Bendigo, have all been collectively thinking about ways they could assist in raising funds for the people affected by the fires in Harcourt. As a group, they have all joined forces and we will be holding a music festival on Sunday 8th March 2026 from 12pm to 8pm. We will be selling tickets for $50 (+BF) per person, with 100% of ticket proceeds going directly to their nominated charity: the Foundation For Rural & Regional Renewal (FRRR), which is a certified charity for Harcourt Fire Relief. The objective is to raise $50,000+. In conjunction with the hotels, the volunteer crews from Bendigo Blues & Roots and Live Music Bendigo will be involved in coordinating the band schedule and assisting with ticketing, promotion and production logistics. The host venues are: The Social, The Courthouse, The Black Swan, The Deck and Bendigo Brewery.The music line-up is still being finalised, and will be announced very shortly, but will be predominantly quality local artists, with some from the effected region included.
Watch here and follow Bendigo Blues & Roots, Live Music Bendigo Inc. and the participating venues on social media for further updates leading up to Sunday 8 March.
* $45 (+BF) early bird price for those buying their tickets in the first week on sale - expires Sunday 8 February.
