:: Between The Bays Festival 2012

By: Carmine Pascuzzi

Now in its seventh year, Between The Bays is firmly established as Mornington Peninsula’s best, family friendly music festival on the summer calendar. It is a family day not to be missed - Saturday February 25, 2012

In 2012, festival organisers have added something for everyone with an eclectic mix of music for all the family including Mark Seymour with full band, Custard, Jordie Lane, The Ooga Boogers, JVG’s Guitar Method, Lah Lah’s BIG Live Band (for the kids) plus some very special additions to be announced soon….check the Between the Bays Facebook page.

Between the Bays began way back in 2006 and is now a much loved family day out for all to enjoy. Throughout the years, Between the Bays has offered music lovers on the Mornington Peninsula, and wider parts of Melbourne, a festival option that is safe and entertaining for kids, that has a great range of local gourmet food and drinks, is inexpensive and has an all inclusive community feel. The fact that 3RRR Independent Radio station ‘Present’ Between the Bays is a huge tick of approval from the music and arts industry! Artists not only love playing at Between the Bays, they request to come back!

2012 will see the introduction of new kid’s activities, such as Skate Boarding workshops and demonstrations, Hip Hop lessons and performances plus many great childrens rides, activities and roaming artists. Children are entertained all day at Between the Bays and there is always something to do. So come along and get creative!

Between the Bays happens at Penbank, located at the end of Rickards Road in Moorooduc, Mornington Peninsula (Mel Ref 146 G8) approximately one hour south of Melbourne. There are 35 beautiful acres to spread out in and enjoy the day, nestled ‘Between the Bays’ and just five minutes from Mornington, which has many different accommodation options.
