Once again, our 2026 Country Music Marathon was a hit!
We had yet another successful event – this was our 33rd!!!
With thanks to Ian Fisk for his photography:
The Music Marathon is held in February each year, on the foreshore of Lake Charlegrark.
Set against the serene backdrop of Lake Charlegrark near Minimay, Victoria, the Annual Country Music Marathon promises a weekend filled with outstanding country music, vibrant camaraderie, and the rustic charm of the countryside.
From Friday through to Sunday, audiences can immerse themselves in more than just a music marathon – it’s a FULL WEEKEND of entertainment featuring talented artists, family-friendly activities, market stalls, delicious food, and the unique experience of camping by the lakeside.
The Event
The festivities kick off on Friday afternoon, leading into the Weekend Warm-Up Variety Night. Saturday offers a full program of country music performances, culminating in a high-energy late-night show, keeping the crowd dancing under the stars.
On Sunday, the celebration continues with live music and bustling market stalls, rounding out the weekend in true country style.
Camping Experience
What makes this event special is the chance to truly embrace country life. Guests with a Weekend Pass are invited to enjoy free camping in the paddock (first-in, first-served; camping at own risk).
It’s the perfect way to break away from the hustle of city life and soak up the serenity of nature, the warmth of community, and the music echoing under starry skies.
