Blues Fest full of smiles

It was a sellout weekend for the Mitchell Creek Rock N Blues Fest at Kandanga.

With limited tickets and camping available, organisers said the popular festival was sold out two clear weeks ahead.

There were plenty of laughs, a little of the amber elixir and lots of great music over the two night festival held in a sheep paddock in the heart of the Mary Valley.

In addition to great music, there were stall holders and food vendors on site, all making for a fun and profitable weekend.

There to capture some of the colourful characters was Gympie Today photographer Shane Zahner.
