Music on Main - New school holidays event at Movie World

[themagician]

Movie World have teased an all new event coming these school holidays called ‘Music on Main’. They’re teasing there will be a multi-award winning music act too

If it's not Shannon Noll turning up and covering "What About Me" on repeat for two hours flat, I'll be disappointed.

I heard Beyoncé is showing up for a stop of her Renaissance Tour (i didn’t i’m just delusional.)

i’m really interested to see what this events about, considering Fright Nights announcements will be starting soon i won’t be shocked if this event is announced in it’s entirety within the next month, let’s hope they execute it well.

If we’re talking delusional, there’s only one option in my mind:

(Seriously, though, I’m guessing this is them trying to do something like Night Markets w/ a live band & food, and their headliner’ll probably be some has-been country dude)

September holidays normally suffers at MW just because much of their efforts are going towards fright nights, so this will be a nice simple addition that doesn't require much in the way of staging - it makes a lot of sense. 

I've been travelling for a while but I love live music. i'm coming home soon so 100% i'll be on my way to the park these holidays to check it out.

Great to see the park providing an additional entertainment offering during the September holiday period. What they’ve announced with the event is only offering something extra at one point in the day so I do hope the park has additional music/entertainment offerings throughout the day. Having busker style performers down Main Street, roaming performances and maybe some additional food/drink trucks would be good to see also.

Has Music on Main turned out to be only a 15min show by Sheppard? 🤪

Correct! But that is what it was always announced as.

Should have been named Sheppard on Main Street then.

They might have roaming performer’s throughout the park, but nothing is advertised. 
 

At first I did think they weren’t going all out for this event because of Fright Nights, but I just realised there isn’t actually an overlap for the events. Music on Main ends on Oct 2 and FN starts Oct 6.

it's almost as if they planned it!
