Powered by the vision and work of Macedon Ranges youth, an exciting new music event is coming to Woodend.
Say hello to The Gig, happening on May 21 thanks to Macedon Ranges council’s Music in the Sticks Crew.
Music in the Sticks offers an opportunity for people aged 12-25 to learn the ropes of event management, performance and live music recording.
The all-ages show will feature some brilliant local talent, including Sack of Flour, Junkyard Wizards, The Seventh Circle and Miles Brennan.
Council’s Communtiy Director Maria Weiss encouraged Macedon Ranges young people to get involved and make the most of The Gig.
“Young people who engage with our youth services programs have told us how isolated they have been feeling,” Ms Weiss said.
“Events such as The Gig reinvigorate our community spaces and promote the fun of live events, all while encouraging young people to socialise and reconnect with others in a safe environment.”
There will be pizza and drinks available on the night and it will be a drug, alcohol and smoke-free event happening at Woodend Community Hall from 6pm to 10pm.
Tickets are $2 and can be purchased on the door or from: mrsc.sales.ticketsearch.com/sales/salesevent/53801.
