Music, art and culture wanted

Organisers of the fourth annual Brisbane Water Regatta Festival are looking for musicians, artists, local cultural groups and stallholders to take part in this year's Ettalong Beach event.

Festival coordinator and president of the Ettalong Beach Business Group Mr Richard Berntsen said the festival would be a great way to showcase the local area to residents and visitors of the Peninsula.

"The festival brings people together to appreciate and embrace Islander and Aboriginal cultures, the talent of local artisans, entertainers and the important work of community organisations while taking in the sights of the NSW State Outrigger competition," Mr Berntsen said.

The Brisbane Water Regatta Festival will be held at Ettalong Beach on Saturday March 13, from 9am with stalls, live music and cultural groups present on the day.
