Smoke on the Water made its way to Shepparton at the weekend (July 20 and 21), bringing with it two days of fun and a delicious selection of smokey barbecue-style food and drinks.

Live music, delicious food, fire twirling, pig racing and more delighted Shepparton’s eyes, ears and taste-buds over the two-day event, while endless rows of market stalls and a bucking bull kept the whole family entertained.

The festival’s Shepparton instalment came to a close with a bang, with a fireworks show lighting up the sky well into Sunday night.

The festival’s next stop will be Murray Bridge, with the next and final stop in Wodonga.

News photographer Rechelle Zammit attended the festival. Here’s what she captured:
