Organiser and performer Unmani said the festival this year has over 20 acts performing across six venues around Rupanyup throughout the afternoon.
Performances will take place in churches, halls, gardens and on verandahs.
“The event is largely acoustic or amplified with a focus on music that can be played anywhere, anytime,” she said.
“There are no headline acts, no egos and no stress.”
She said the idea of dirt music was that it is made by everyday people during their everyday lives.
“The Rupanyup’s Dirt Music Festival gives amateur musicians and performers of all kinds, an opportunity to ‘strut their stuff’ in a caring and nurturing environment, where the emphasis is on having fun, making music and listening to it,” she said.
“It’s a fantastic opportunity for performers and audiences alike to enjoy performance art and music in very intimate and relaxed surroundings.”
