Missy Higgins, You Am I Lead Riverboats Music Festival 2016 Lineup

Fast approaching its fifth birthday, the Riverboats Music Festival has just released the line-up for 2016’s event with Missy Higgins, You Am I and The Church set to headline.

Returning to the banks of the Murray River at Echuca-Moama from Friday 19th of February to Sunday the 21st, this year’s line-up is bigger than ever with a host of local talent slated to appear alongside the headliners.

The lineup also includes the likes of C.W. Stoneking, Oh Mercy, Emma Donovan & The Putbacks, Mick Thomas & The Roving Commission, The Wilson Pickers, Jess Ribeiro, Ruby Boots, Jack Carty, All Our Exes Live In Texas and Skyscraper Stan & The Commission Flats, all of whom will take the stage over the three day event (full details at the bottom).

Hosted under a canopy of river red gums, Riverboats Music Festival is also the only music festival to offer ticket holders the chance to attend performances on some of the region’s historic paddle steamers. Hugely popular, organisers urge punters to book tickets in advance with the festival once again teaming with the Pride Of The Murray, and presenting performances by Ruby Boots, Skyscraper Stan & The Commission Flats and The Wilson Pickers on Saturday 20th of February.

That’s not the only unconventional extra option the festival has to offer with The Official Festival Breakfast also being a popular feature over the weekend. Held in partnership with theBeechworth Bakery and hosted on their top floor, this festive brekkie event will see alt country troubadour dour Ruby Boots treating early risers to an intimate performance while they avail themselves of the generous spread on Sunday 21st February.

Tickets on sale now. See the lineups for each day of the festival, below.
