It’s the final countdown - the 2022 National Cherry Festival kicks off tomorrow with a free concert at Young Library at 12:30 pm.

The Cherry Festival Variety Concert features accomplished local performers, including reigning Cherry Queen, Trudi Summerfield.

Among the lineup are seasoned musicians and poetry presenters who will offer a wide range of entertainment.

A variety of musical styles from traditional folk, jazz and pop is on the program.

Aussie bush yarns will also feature.

Artists include Jim Lamb, Vicki Walsh, Liz Whitechurch, Emily Brooker and many more, as well as a number of senior students from the Young Regional School of Music.

Musical renditions using voice, keyboard, flute and guitar will be included.

While people planning to attend are invited to book at the Library by phoning 6384 4240 or emailing younglibrary@hilltops.nsw.gov.au, everyone is welcome to attend, including walk-ins.

The event will take a similar informal format to the library’s former weekly concert series, Take 5.

Young’s harvest festival begins tomorrow and will be celebrated throughout the whole weekend.
