The highly anticipated Castlemaine Idyll, lot19’s annual fundraiser, is back on Saturday, March 15.
This one-of-a-kind event brings together local performers, incredible live music and community spirit, and in 2025 will celebrate the best tunes of the 80s, 90s and 00s.
Returning with an extended running time, Castlemaine Idyll Kids Karaoke, delicious food and drinks, and a fun after-show DJ party, this year’s event promises more surprises and excitement than ever.
With 30 live performances riffing on some of the greatest hits from the past few decades, this is sure to be an unforgettable night.
Castlemaine Idyll features local hopefuls who perform with a professional band, complete with a killer horn section and sensational backing singers.
“We’re so excited to bring our community together for an event that’s all about fun, music and connection,” said Mark Anstey of lot19.
“Castlemaine Idyll has become a beloved tradition, and we can’t wait to celebrate with everyone this year.”
This year’s panel of esteemed judges includes Aryo Hall (The Seduceaphones), Eliza Hull (musician and disability advocate), and Casey Bennetto (broadcaster, writer, and musician).
Registrations for Castlemaine Idyll Kids Karaoke are now open – check the lot19 website for details. Castlemaine Idyll is supported by local businesses and organisations; MainFM, who will broadcast the event live, the Shedshaker Brewing Idyll Bar and I Am Someone’s People’s Choice Award.
