Berry’s Extend the Weekend series invites visitors to slow down, settle in and experience the village like a local. Across a curated program of music and cultural weekends, Berry comes alive from Thursday nights through to relaxed Sunday sessions, with live performances, great food and warm hospitality shared across local venues.

Each themed weekend brings together live music, dining, local venues and accommodation into a village wide experience. It is not about rushing through – it is about unhurried evenings, long lunches, good company and discovering something new each time you return to town.

The next event in the series is A Day Well Spent – Jazz & Blues on 19 and 22 March 2026. Expect a lively mix of jazz and blues across the program, from intimate duos and expressive vocal performances through to groove driven rhythm and blues bands. The line up features Frank Sultana, Tall Shaun & The Resolution, Jr & The Jewel Tones, Tyler Hauptberger, Blue Mallee, Ella’s Holiday, Freyja Garbett, Harry Cooper & Leon Holstegge, and Jeremy Sawkins, creating a vibrant live music atmosphere across venues throughout the village.

Looking ahead, the series continues with Indie on 21 and 24 May, followed by Funk & Soul on 18 and 21 June, giving visitors plenty of reasons to plan another extended stay in Berry.
