Festival Director Rachel Clarke said she was thrilled to be working with the Maleny Festival team again to bring another incredible event to fruition.
“We are so proud to be able to deliver such an amazing event for you this year,” Ms Clarke said. “This festival started out as the Maleny Folk Festival and has grown into something so much more. We love our folk music but with so many stages we also deliver variety in our musical genres. “If you love your music, you will love this festival!” With a diverse program, multiple stages, workshops and jamming sessions tent, the 2024 line-up features acts, from overseas and interstate plus a bunch of the region’s favoured local performers.
Ms Clarke said visitors to the Maleny Music Festival (MMF) enjoyed a small, family friendly festival, renowned for its relaxed, intimate and casual atmosphere. “With plenty of seating for grandma and a kids entertainment hub for the little ones; this truly is an event for all ages,” she said. “With plenty of room for camping, we can stretch out onto the Pony Club oval so everyone can camp with ease and style.
