Between The Bays is not your average festival, set on a delightful 35-acre rural property in Moorooduc on the Mornington Peninsula.

Now in its 9th year, Between the Bays is firmly established as Mornington Peninsula’s best annual summer music festival that also gives back to the community with all proceeds raised going to Penbank School’s partnership with the Wugularr School in the Northern Territory.

The stellar line up includes Tex Perkins with The Ape, Diesel, Daryl Braithwaite, The Basics, Boom Crash Opera and local act Russell Beggs with gates opening at 2pm and musical entertainment kicking off at 2:35pm and concluding at 10.30pm.

Between The Bays is not just about music, there is something for everyone including children, food lovers and the wine and beer connoisseur.  As the sun sets on the Mornington Peninsula, you can sample a broad range of culinary delights to keep you going throughout the day, from a simple sausage sizzle, ice-cream treats, to yummy delights such as wood fired pizza’s, calamari, vegetarian options and wonderful coffee, including tasty treats for the kids as well!

This year, you won’t be let down by the range of beverages as Between the Bays have employed festival specialists to run their bar. There will be an array of local beer and wine on hand with drinks available from gates open and for those not drinking alcohol, you are welcome to bring your own water bottle to refill throughout the day the FREE WATER STATION.

If you would rather bring your own food, feel free to pack your own gourmet picnic and bring it along (just remember no glass).

The festival will once again have a great variety of kid’s rides; children will be able to purchase a wristband for unlimited rides throughout the day including:

Giant Ferris Wheel, The Cha Cha, Chair O Plane, Train Ride, The Tea Cups, Various Jumping Castles, Giant Slide and Nylon Zoo – story telling in a giant fish!

Between the Bays takes place at Penbank, located at the end of Rickards Road in Moorooduc, Mornington Peninsula approximately 1 hour south of Melbourne, nestled between the bays (Westernport and Port Phillip Bay) and just five minutes from Mornington.

If driving, there is parking on the site on the day, managed by The Lions Club, the cost is a small gold coin donation.

If you prefer not to drive, Between The Bays will again be running a shuttle bus to and from the festival site, with two-pick up/drop off points connecting with public transport running throughout the day and into the evening.
