Horsham Country Mmusic Festival 2018.jpg

The Horsham Country Music Association was formed in 2006 with the first monthly gig held in 2007 and the inaugural Horsham Country Music Festival held in April 2008.; The first two festivals were of three days duration before moving to a four day festival from 2010.

In addition to conducting an annual festival we hold monthly gigs at the Horsham RSL. We have a Dinner & Show on Thursday night at 6.30pm which costs $30 including a two course dinner followed by Morning Melodies on Friday morning at 9.30am which costs $12 including morning tea. See MONTHLY GIGS for further details.

On 31st January 2016 Horsham Country Music Association held A Pleasant Sunday Afternoon in the New Horsham Town Hall with Kiara Rodrigues and Trevor Keilar performing to a capacity crowd of 500. The afternoon raised $17,500 for the Wimmera Cancer Centre Project.
