Entertainment reigns supreme at this year’s show, with Boulia country musician Ali S joining the musical line up.

A graduate of the 2017 Country Music Academy, Ali said the program has given him another step up on the country music ladder of live performances.

Show secretary, Ranita Tolhke is delighted to secure his services.

“We’re so excited to announce Ali S will be performing on both days of the show,” Ms Tohlke said.

His new single ‘I Need a Beer’, written with Catherine Britt, was inspired by his experience of working underground at Mount Isa Mine and looking forward to having a beer after work.
