Brighter Days Festival – Fri 8th Mar
The Brighter Days Festival is 3 days of family friendly fun held annually in the Victorian township of Bright, on the Labour Day Weekend in March each year. It all started when a group of like minded friends whose interests include bikes, cars and music formed a committee to organise the inaugural “Brighter Days” event. In the first year in excess of $32,000 was raised for two chosen children’s charities, and now the Brighter Days Foundation have added a third charity and donated well in excess of one million dollars – a figure the foundation could not have imagined, when starting back in 2013! They hope to continue to raise more funds each year through natural growth and as awareness of the annual event develops. The name obviously is two fold; the first, that the event is held in Bright, the second is in the hope that we can make a “brighter day” for some kids.
Scarecrow – The Mellencamp Show are excited to be participating in the festival & we’ll be performing on the Friday night approx 8.45pm, hope you can join us!
There’s no ticket entry cost, however patrons are requested to purchase a $10.00 wristband donation (Adult) or $5 wristband donation (Child under 16), upon entry to the festival. See you in Bright!
