 Paradise is a word that quickly comes to mind when describing Port Stephens and in fact is the home of the Blue Water Country Music Festival where the Country meets the sea. This is an entirely new concept in Country Music with many components of the Festival being on Water. You can in fact join Luncheon Afloat or just Board a Boat and soak up Country Music while sailing Port Stephens. This is a unique experience.
There are of course many other ways to enjoy the Festival on shore at over 40 venues in Port Stephens hosting over 200 Country Music artists including many nationally recognised personalities, Bush Poets, Boot scooting, Blue Grass, Country Music Gospel Concert, Blue Dolphin young talent awards and much more.
