For the first time ever, Monto will be hosting the Festival of Small Halls.
Festival of Small Halls is bringing musicians Kellie Loder and Van Dijk & McDonald to Monto, Central Queensland, on their upcoming Spring Tour 2024: Outback Queensland.
Presented by veteran festival producers Woodfordia Inc, the much-loved not-for-profit music tour is embarking on its 41st trip. With a packed schedule of twenty shows across four Spring weeks, this tour heads all the way up to the red dirt and dinosaur trails of Muttaburra, before worksing its way through the North Burnett and Banana regions, all the way to the border towns of Texas and Ballandean in the Goondiwindi and Southern Downs regions. It will stop in Monto on Friday 11th October, hosted in the Monto Landcare Hall.
Newfoundland musician Kellie Loder will be travelling to Australia for their inaugural Australian tour. “I am beyond excited to bring my music to Australia for the first time in my career.”
Joining Kellie are Van Dijk & Mcdonald, much-loved folk duo who’ve featured across many a musical act, and are bringing a fresh set of tunes with them this September. And in Monto, local singer/songwriter Grace Ellerton will share the stage.
