MUSIC fans are on track for a weekend-long treat with the announcement of Sound Tracks, a new live music and tourism experience on a restored steam train that will chug its way across the state, including through Geelong.<\/p>\n

Held from October 6-8 and supported by the state government, the event will see a heritage train running between Melbourne and Charlton, where music lovers can hop on board for performances by some of Victoria\u2019s most exciting talents, all while enjoying local food and wine.<\/p>\n

Departing from Southern Cross Station, the train will make pit stops in Geelong and Ballarat before arriving in Charlton, giving guests the opportunity to explore the town, and then returning to Melbourne.<\/p>\n

Sound Tracks, announced today (Monday, August 14), aims to support Charlton\u2019s continued recovery from the 2022 summer floods, and builds on the $1 million announced earlier this year to support tourism-boosting and community-strengthening music events in flood-affected communities across the state.<\/p>\n

The event, presented by OK Motels, will feature a stacked lineup including electronic producer Harvey Sutherland, jazz outfit Glass Beams, dance act Juno Mamba and folk group Folk B***h Trio with more announcements to come.<\/p>\n

From performances at the local bowling club, dinner in the shire hall and headline acts filling Charlton\u2019s art deco Rex theatre, guests can expect a lively weekend filled with food and great music.<\/p>\n

\u201cIncredible music, stunning scenery, a steam train, great food and wine \u2013 it all adds up to a one-of-a-kind experience that will invite travellers to see our regions in a whole new light,\u201d Minister for Creative Industries Steve Dimopoulous said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re backing Sound Tracks as part of our work to strengthen and support the state\u2019s music industry and our commitment to supporting recovery in flood-impacted communities.\u201d<\/p>\n

The event has a very limited capacity of 200, so guests are encouraged to book thcir tickets quickly.<\/p>\n
