The Ararat Jailhouse Rock Festival is run by a dedicated team of volunteers with the support of the Ararat Rural City Council. Celebrating the 50s and 60s, the festival annually draws thousands of people to Ararat.

Saturday will be starting off at Alexandra Oval from 10 am with hot rods and classic bikes, as well as performances from live music bands and plenty of dancing.

Everyone can take part in a dance-off contest, explore the beer garden or join on a car cruise tour at 2pm. As night comes alive, expect more rock’n’roll music jamming from 7pm onwards with lively dances under the stars.

Sunday will bring more fun activities as they host a children’s entertainment program, food stalls, BBQs, Jailhouse Show ’n’ Shine cars display and free-spirited fashion parades to get everyone grooving!
