Home Ground Sounds, which aims to support regional groups through fundraising, will be headlined by nine-time Golden Guitar recipients The Wolfe Brothers.
Joining the popular duo is Rob Mills, performing the songs of Bon Jovi, along with Sam & Sam, 19-Twenty, Zak Armstrong, and 13-piece party band Big and Horny.
Funds raised from the concert will support the Cohuna Kangas Football and Netball Club, and local community groups will be involved in the event.
Roundbox Group, the company behind the event, is aiming to make the inaugural concert an annual occurrence.

Director Debra Clarke said her team was composed of remote workers living in and connected to regional areas.
“We recognise the opportunities for raising much-needed funds is not always as available to smaller clubs and groups,” she said.
“We have designed the Home Ground Sounds event to get community groups involved in diverse ways, such as being food vendors, so they can both promote themselves to locals and raise money to ensure their futures.”
Ms Clarke encouraged Cohuna and surrounding towns to embrace the event by attending to support the community.
“All of the pieces are in place to ensure this event could become an annual tradition,” she said.
The concert kicks off at 2pm on Sunday, March 9 at the Cohuna Recreation Reserve.
Ticket purchases include entry into a raffle with five different prizes, including a unique acoustic guitar and a hot air balloon festival package, and camping is available.
