Over two hours, 15 acts showcased their incredible abilities to a full house of 125 guests.
There were musical performances from choirs and soloists, poetry recitals, musical pieces and more.
The event was presented by Deniliquin’s U3A in partnership with South West Music.
“It was great to see such amazing talent in the community,” U3A member Gayle Beckton said.
Given the reception to this year’s concert, South West Music is looking at making it an annual event.
Mrs Beckton said the event achieved its main goal, which was to continue to connect the community through the “unique talents of some of our locals”.
