Bootscoot into the long weekend
0The countdown to the long weekend and one of South East Queensland’s premier music events, the 2016 Urban Country Music Festival, is officially on.
More than 50 of Australia’s best country music artists will saddle up to help get the festival started in Caboolture from Friday, April 29 to Sunday, May 1.
Queensland’s own James Blundell is among the acts who will headline the new Friday night Bootscoot ‘n’ BBQ concert.
For James this will be his first Urban Country Music Festival appearance.
“I’m so excited to be part of the Urban Country Music Festival this year. It’s a festival I’ve been wanting to get involved in for a while now. I can’t promise my boot scooting will be world class, but I do cook a mean snag on the BBQ,” said James Blundell.
The festival will continue on Saturday with plenty of free entertainment and activities in the Caboolture Historical Village including the Performax Haval Village Stage.
