Musician Holly Rankin, more commonly known as Jack River, acknowledged the effort it takes to run a music festival.
"I've never been to a Party in the Paddock, but I'm sure it's a really incredible thing for the youth of Launceston," she said.
"I run a festival in my hometown and I know how hard they are, but how much they bring to a community."

Festival organisers announced on Tuesday that the 2020 installment of the festival would be the last.
Rankin said to be a part of the last festival would be really special.
"I'll be there in happiness and sadness," she said.
The artist will headline the festival's Thursday pre-party.
For nine years straight, PITP has been a go-to event. Despite expanding capacity every year, the festival has sold out for the past five.
Organisers said they did not want the event to become soulless and just another money-making experience.
Party in the Paddock will be held at White Hills from February 6 until 9.
