A feature of Village Fair @ Comboyne is the all day entertainment for all ages. This year we have more for the kids. The entertainment includes three major music gigs, a talent quest, street characters, buskers, Troppo Bob the magician, a children's festival as well as the great entertainment you'll get from just watching others have a great time at all the events. All this and more is covered by your entry fee.

The Last Train

From torch to twang the 'Train convey the restless spirit of our times. Diverse songlines from marriage to murder and tattoos to trauma range across a variety of musical genres that include folk, country, blues and swing.

Myrth

MYRTH, ah! "Please explain?"...... Well, I guess it's like a box of tricks that you just can't keep a lid on! This group of three luscious local women, love to sing and make merry. Their original material embraces sensitive women's issues ranging from .... Stress Incontinence, Accidental Weight Gain (oops!), and finding Mr Right at the supermarket. Myrth also love to re-hash a few choice "golden oldies" to hurl you into a place of comfort. If your laugh-lines are fading, come and get a dose of Myrth.
