“Sculpted Sounds will hopefully become a regular festival or concert series. The location & facilities were perfect for an outdoor concert, the surrounds of the sculpture park adding to the atmosphere. I would gladly come back & play my own show or a festival set there again. We were also very well looked after & it felt like the organisers really knew what they were doing - catering, production & back stage areas were all great”.

“What an incredible celebration of Australian music in a most beautiful setting. It’s not often the event space also inspires the art and creativity on stage. Everyone there felt special to be at the first Sculpted Sounds. May it be the start of something that will blossom for many years to come. There’s so much potential here”.
Stellar is a premium outdoor short film festival on the Mornington Peninsula. An unforgettable night under the stars with award-winning short films, gourmet food, local beverages and live entertainment. In its sixth year at McClelland the natural amphitheatre lends itself to an evening of spectacular short films under the stars, amongst acres of native bushland filled with some of Australia’s finest sculptures.
