It’s going to be a “lights, camera, action” kind of vibe around Murray Bridge this coming week, with a concert, TV show filming, and even a school formal to be had.

This Friday night, we roll out the red carpet for the year 12s of Murray Bridge High School, who will be all glammed up for their senior formal.

On Saturday night, Adelaide talent Claz is bringing his Australian tour to the Imperial Football Club, joined by Murray Bridge’s born-and-bred talent, Kirby.

Adelady will then be filming their show, Hello SA, at Mypolonga’s very own Lot 23 this Monday, and the cafe owners are encouraging locals to come along and fill the venue.

Sorry, I’ll be right back, I’m getting ready for my close-up.
