Riverboats Music Festival returns to the banks of the Murray River on Yorta Yorta country at Echuca-Moama for its 15th anniversary in 2027.
The festival has kept things simple with one stage, no timetable clashes, and an Australian and New Zealand line-up.
Friday kicks off with Milly Strange, Floodlights, and rock legends Spiderbait closing the night.
Saturday will start with Country icon Fanny Lumsden, followed by Kaitlin Keegan, Ella Thompson, Mulga Bore Hard Rock and Henry Wagons. The Cat Empire will headline, marking their return to Riverboats’ stage since 2014.
On Sunday, Nadia Reid will take to the stage, along with Claire Anne Taylor, The Gnomes and Troy Cassar-Daley, with The Waifs closing the weekend.
Brian Nankervis of Rockwiz returns to MC across all three days.
Making its debut in 2027 as part of the weekend’s festivities is Riverboats Yoga with sessions at the Port of Echuca on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
