Your host Ben Kritikos will play songs from that great American song bag, playing banjo, guitar, harmonica and kazoo. There'll be plenty of stuff for the kids to play too and everybody's invited to sing along.

Kids of all ages are welcome and so are their bigger folks. The music and the yarns are for everybody, not just the kids!

Bring your singin' shoes.

Tickets cover one kid and their carer.

Concessions available—nobody gets turned away (provided there's capacity). Just give us a holler.
