Nanango muster draws big crowds

Events certainly pay off handsomely for Queensland’s regional towns

The 12th annual Heritage Country Music Muster held at Nanango in the South Burnett over the weekend drew another bumper crowd this year.

Around 770 caravans/campervans packed into the Nanango Showgrounds plus more overspilling the three holiday parks in the town. Caravans began coming to the showgrounds for the event towards the end of August. It is estimated that over 850 of the mobile homes were in town for the week long event.

This year’s invited artists included Bec Hance, Brian Letton, Col Hardy, Dean Perrett, Ged and Trudy Hintz, Graham Rodger, Jeff Brown, John Smith, Kedron Taylor, Peter Pratt, Sharon Heaslip, Steve Passfield, Tom Maxwell and Trevor Tolton. Bush poets Gary Fogarty, Ray Essery and Harry Pickering helped round out the bill.

The next big events at Nanango Showgrounds are a caravanning convention in late September that is expected to attract around 300 vans and the third annual Waterhole Rocks old time rock and roll festival on October 17-19.
