About the festival

The festival is produced by Skunkworks Community Limited in association with the Victorian Bands' League.


The festival provides an opportunity for young musicians to gain experience in public performance and to meet like minded young musicians.


VENUE: Hawthorn Town Hall,  360 Burwood Road, Hawthorn VIC 3122

Festival Rules

There are no rules. Any band of any size and standard can enter.  This is a non-competitive festival with the main aim of providing experience and enjoyment to band members and the public.


Can't field a full band? No worries, if you have essential chairs that need to be filled you may co-opt an adult musician to fill that chair in the spirit that it gives a chance for the younger musicians to perform. The Victorian State Youth Brass Band (VSYBB) will also be on hand if you wish to borrow a young musician to fill a chair. Please let us know in the contact form below if you would like a player from the VSYBB to help fill out your band.

Festival Entry Fees

We wish to make this festival accessible to smaller bands just starting out as well as more established bands. For this reason the entry fee will be based on the number of band members. The entry fee is $10 per band member. Your band will be invoiced once you complete the registration form below.
