About Spring Migration Gay & Lesbian Festival Yackandandah

SPRING MIGRATION 2008
Now in it's 4th year
"Making History in the North East of Victoria"
Spring Migration 2008 will be held on Friday 5th, Saturday 6th & Sunday 7th September.
Don't miss this great experience. Book your accommodation now.
Tickets will be $45.00. email for tickets
This year we need a larger venue for Friday Meet And Greet (Yackandandah Hall) as well as the Star Hotel Yackandandah.
The Indigo Shire are one of our main sponsors this year, as we have proved what the Gay community
can do for the economy of small country towns, and how we can have fun and party without trouble or problems and have proved to country communities what a great bunch of people we all are.

Not only are we now part of History Making in the North East of Victoria with a Church Service celebrating life,
but in 2008 there will be Tibetan Monks blessing the Festival on Saturday night, this is also another coup for the North East.
Don't miss it!
You are welcome to one of the safest and friendliest country towns in the mountains of Victoria.
Gaz is now a committee member on Yackandandah Tourism Association and we have some amazing things
in store to bring alternative and peaceful festivals to our part of the world, Yackandandah and the beautiful
and breathtaking mountains of the North East of Victoria.
Come up and visit us this year and bring in Spring with us and continue making history, support our sponsors and let us guide you to Gay Friendly Victorian Tourism
