The new additions join a long list of Australian icons including John Williamson, Lee Kernaghan, Golden Guitar winners Fanny Lumsden and The McClymonts, Casey Barnes, Busby Marou and many more.

Sound Australia’s James Dein said he’s proud to show Australia’s great talent pool in today’s announcement.  

“It's been a tough time for everyone over the last year, but Savannah in the Round is committed to making sure Australia has a large-scale country music event in 2021,” he said. 

“With the capacity to add international talent as borders open, Savannah in the Round will serve the country music community and shine a light on the beauty of the Cairns and Great Barrier Reef region, not just in 2021 but for years to come.”

Savannah in the Round will take place at the Kerribee Park Rodeo Grounds in Mareeba, October 1-3.

The three-day event will also host cultural programs, community entertainment, local produce and goods, and paddock-to-plate food options.

A full range of accommodation options are available across the weekend, from drive-in campsites to on-site ‘glamping’ tents.

Transfers from a range of accommodation partners in Cairns and Port Douglas will also be available.
