The three-day festival will kick off on Friday next week at a dance at the Horsham College Hall on Dimboola Road at 7.30pm.

Musical acts The Spectacles, The Cruisers, Fender Benders and Dave McMaster will entertain crowds during the weekend.

Club treasurer and dance teacher Marg Finn said club members expected hundreds of people to come to Horsham for the event.

“We’ve got rock and roll dancers coming from Ballarat, Mildura, Hamilton, Melbourne, even Leongatha,” she said.

She said rock and roll dancing was popular in the region.

“We’ve had a lot of teenagers and older people dancing,” she said.

Mrs Finn said the main event was a dance at Horsham College Hall on Saturday from 7.30pm.

She said the theme was leather and lace.

Mrs Finn said the group would wrap up the festival at a dance and barbeque lunch at Haven Hall on Sunday from 10am.

Mrs Finn encouraged anyone interested in rock and roll dancing to come along to the club’s practices at Haven Hall every Monday from 7.30pm.

“Anyone’s welcome to come along and learn,” she said.

She said people could call her on 5382 0021 or search Wimmera Rockers Danceworld on Facebook for more information.
