The South Burnett Regional Youth Council has put together two great competitions to be run alongside this year’s Kingaroy BaconFest.

The Pigs Can Fly art competition is inviting local artists aged 12-25 to submit a painting or drawing for the chance to win prizes.

Artwork can be submitted at any library within the South Burnett and will be judged by the Youth Council.

The Youth Council is also again organising a Battle of the Bands event at BaconFest, PigJam.

Local musicians aged 12-25 years have been invited to take part in the event,  which will be held in O’Neill Square, Kingaroy, from 2:00pm-7:30m on Saturday, August 19.

Artists will be judged by the audience and winners will take home prizes including $800 cash and gift vouchers from Musicians Oasis.

The winning band will also have the opportunity to play live on air on CROW-FM.

The night will finish with a performance by last year’s winning band Sparrow.

Winners of the Pigs Can Fly art competition will also be announced during the PigJam event.
