Mini by name, massive by nature

Sunset in the Park is fast becoming one of the most anticipated events on the Port Douglas calendar, showcasing the region's best musical talent.

In previous years Rex Smeal Park has been the location for the music festival, but this year organisers have chosen the Port Douglas Yacht Club for their 'mini' version of Sunset in the Park.

Despite the reference to a smaller event, music lovers will enjoy nearly ten hours of live entertainment at the Yacht Club this Sunday, with a dozen acts lined up to play to an appreciative crowd.

The event kicks off at 2pm and will feature Kim Hurley as she and her band play songs from her newly released album 'Letters to Letty.'

Tickets are just $10 for adults, $5 for children, and music lovers under the age of 12 will join in for free.

Here's the line up:

2.15 - 2.45        Omid Master and band
2.55 - 3.25        A Good Drop
3.35 - 4.05        Sonny Boy Forbes
