‘Tis the season

Between stuffing your face with cold meats and unwrapping presents, Christmas time is perfect to round up your crew and head out to listen to some great live music. Turn off your Mariah Carey Christmas album and check out this list of Christmas gigs to get loose and get merry at.

Christmas with Raised by Eagles
Raised by Eagles would like to wish you all a very merry Christmas with their Country-style Christmas Revue. While the band has been busy showing the country their third album, I Must Be Somewhere, they are so full of spirit that they’ve sweet-talked Castlemaine’s Theatre Royal into giving them a free run of the venue on December 22. Joining them will be Lost Ragas and The Ahern Brothers.

Christmas Disco at Karova Lounge

Australia’s first lady of disco CC:DISCO! returns to Ballarat for one hell of a Christmas party! Going down on Friday December 22, she’ll be joined by Sweat Dreams DJ’s, Fitz-e and Peekaboo.

Xmas Eve Party at The Elephant

The 10th Annual Boxing Day Slam
