The genre of the festival has made a small shift from
previous years and for 2009 we will have a Country, and
Country Rock. The artists are keen to present their
material and it is hoped that there will be a large
crowd on the day.
Festival Chairman Mr Jeff Sproal promised those
attending a wonderful day, with fabulous entertainers,
line dancing demos, in a great family atmosphere. Mr
Sproal added that the Lions Club of Mount Eliza is a
step closer to making the Red Hill Festival a keynote
annual entertainment day for all residents and visitors
to the Peninsula.
Artists on the bill for 2009 are Travis List, Allen
Tompkins Showcase Band, Jane Denham, Tim Farren, The
Distance, Blackhill Ramblers, Straight 8's, John
Lawrence Band and others.
Our compere for the day is the inimitable Mr Rod
Quarrel.
More about the artists
The Country Music Festival also features a youth talent
segment which proves that we have so much talent just
waiting to be discovered right here on the Peninsula.
Brought to you by the Rye & District Community Bank,
this showcase of young artists paves the way for a
fabulous day out for all the family.
Also featured on the day will be the Red Hill Hot
Rod/Custom and Classic Car Show. This is an ASRF
sanctioned event for pre 1974 cars. There will also be a
"Tuff Ute" display for pre 1980 utes. For 2009 the Red
Hill Country Music Festival will once again be presenting "The Ian
Shaw Memorial Trophy" for the winner in the Hotrod and
Classic Car section.
Gates open at 8am with admission being $20 and children
under 14 admitted free. The program will run from 9:00
am to 6:30 pm. Ample parking is available along with
