Move with the music

Since 1997, Queenscliff Music Festival has been turning up the volume of the Bellarine with a diverse range of contemporary music. The three-day musical and cultural event, held the last weekend of November each year, is a frenzy of live music, local food and family-friendly activities. 

Queenscliff Music Festival also runs the annual FOOT-IN-THE-DOOR competition, giving emerging artsists the opportunity to perform in front of up to 10,000 festival attendees in a battle-of-the-bands style program.
