Partnering with Searoad Ferries, the newly introduced Princess Peninsula Ferry will host six intimate performances across Saturday and Sunday on the ferry-turned-floating-festival-stage. The 40 minute bay cruise will see audiences drift into a new realm of music consumption.

“Queenscliff Music Festival has always been about musical discovery and unexpected connection,”
says Festival Director Claire Stickland.

“Whether it’s a breakthrough artist you’ve never heard before or watching a set unfold on a boat in
the middle of the bay, these are the moments that stay with people, and they are the unforgettable moments that makes Queenscliff a truly extraordinary Festival.”

The stage will play host to an exceptional talent pool including Gippsland-based folk rock/alt country duo Ally Row, one man blues band Alex Kosenko, indie folk artist Chris Cavill, local legend, Spanish/Australian songstress Emilia Fol, and Bellarine-based duo Get Behind The Mule. Grace Robinson, Kit Genesis, Kook Joey, Matt Davis, Monroe, Norwood, Otis Namrell Band, Public Figures, Ruby McKenna, Sweethearts, and Victoriana Gaye Trio.

The impressive additions join an already stellar lineup of artists include The Cat Empire, Little Birdy, The Bad Loves, King Stingray, Ella Hooper, The Preatures and so many more.
