Organiser Ben Consedine said the event had been a great success.
“We won’t know the exact numbers for a few days, but we had well over 1000 people,” he said.
“The weather wasn’t on our side, but that didn’t seem to hurt us; everyone really had a great time and enjoyed themselves. We had people attend from every state.”
Country musicians Liam Brew and Jake Sinclair performed at the event, alongside local band Johnny Thunder and the Lightnings.
“They were the real highlights,” he said.
Run by Horsham Apex Club, the event raises money for the community through ticket sales.
In the past, events have helped fund projects such as the pump track near the Wimmera River.
The group has also given out thousands of dollars worth of grants to community organisations.
“We will regroup next week and discuss plans for next year’s event,” he said.
