GET ready for ROCHELLA, an epic day of live music, food, family fun and more, all in the name of recovery and resilience.
An all-in community affair, taking place on Saturday October 14 at the Rochester Recreation Reserve, ROCHELLA has been organised Rochester Community House for the local community with support from sporting clubs and committees of the region.
The event is an opportunity for locals to come together and take some time out following the floods of 2022. Alongside live music, ROCHELLA will feature fun family activities and local food stalls.
The festival will be headlined by award-winning Victorian bands Cash Savage and The Black Sorrows as well as musicians from the local community and around the state. The line-up includes Bones and Jones from Geelong, dance-pop collective Empress, Echuca band Stumbling North, family-friendly act The Burnt Sausages, and Australian Idol artist Anya Alchemy.
Local students will take a star turn with the premiere of a song they wrote in collaboration with Golden Guitar winner Josh Arnold for his Small Town Culture music project.
On sale from Friday 25 August 2023, tickets are $10 for residents of postcode 3561, $30 for visitors and free for kids under 12. They can be purchased from the Rochester Newsagency or via rochellarochester.com.au.
Proceeds from ticket sales go to the Rochester Community Access Flood Relief Fund. For further information about ROCHELLA and the Live Music for Flood Recovery Program visit musicvictoria.com.au.
