Festival draws crowds to Port

LAST weekend’s Port Fairy Jazz Festival once again saw the seaside town come alive with music and colour.

Ten venues across the town played host to an estimated 500 musicians across the weekend, with some travelling from as far as Brisbane, Sydney and Adelaide for the opportunity to perform in front of attentive crowds.

Music lovers of all ages were treated to some high quality performances and the highly sought after John Huf Award, which encourages young performers to become involved in jazz, was presented in the Lecture Hall on Sunday afternoon.
