Fresh Produce is filling the void left by Groovin the Moo after organisers announced it had cancelled the regional touring music festival for the second year in a row.

Alongside Yergurl and Tonky, music acts G Flip, Cosmo's Midnight, Spacey Jane, Lime Cordiale, Mallrat and Hooligan Hefs will perform.
The two-night event will also feature north-west Victorain performer Alice Skye, Shepparton's Vince the Kid and Ballarat band Gangz
Fresh Produce is expected to host about 2500 music lovers with tickets set to go on sale at 9am on February 18.
The event is designed under current coronavirius restrictions and designed to be flexible enough to run under almost any COVID-19 restrictions.
"We are basically setting it to run in the conditions we are in now," GTM and Fresh Produce organiser Stephen Halpin said. "(The aim) is to be able to run no matter the conditions, we won't have to postpone.
"Each site has a crew is that is state based. That's what we put in the application and we have been successful getting it. It means we will be able to deliver a re-imagined mini-event that can run in a COVID-safe way."
GTM was cancelled after coronavirus restrictions prevented organisers from being able to form any concrete plans.
"We tried really hard," he said. "But in six different states, with different jurisdictions, everyone has slightly different requirements.
"Doing another year without Fresh Produce, we would have lost a lot of important staff and people over to other things. So I guess we were lucky to receive the (Restart Investment to Sustain and Expand) funding because it made the decision to put GTM aside again easier."
The Fresh Produce music event is in Bendigo on September 24 and 25.
Friday's line-up includes G Flip, Cosmo's Midnight, Spacey Jane, Mia Wray, Yergurl, Gangz with DJs Jade Zoe and Cliterally.
Saturday's line-up is Lime Cordiale, mallrat, Hooligan Hefs, Alice Skye, Vince the Kid, Oetha and DJs Soju Gang and Tonky.
