Celebrate
our birthday with over 200 musicians, singers, dancers
and poets at the historic and picturesque village of Cobargo
which is situated on the south coast of NSW (south of Batemans
Bay and three hours from Canberra.)
Performers
and audiences alike have described this Festival as "the
best little folk festival in the country" (Bob McInnes
- Cornstalk Gazette.) The Festival will be held again
at the Cobargo Showground which has excellent onsite
camping, hot and cold showers etc. It's a short walk
to the Cobargo village where there is a good pub, coffee
shops and an excellent supermarket where you can purchase
your stores. There's also some tempting craft and antique
shops.
The
featured instrument for the 2005 Festival is the voice.
Local and national choirs and singing groups will be
highlighted. |
Of
course there are concerts, workshops, dances, poets breakfasts,
comedy acts, sessions, sessions and more sessions, plus
intimate blackboard concerts, exotic food stalls, bar
and refreshments. This is a very friendly festival and
judging from the many accolades from last year's festival,
it just keeps getting better!

Special
kid's activities are planned to keep the young ones entertained.
Kids will have the opportunity to participate in musical
and artistic activities.
The
Cobargo Folk and Music Festival has become a regular
treat for residents of the South Coast and many visitors
from NSW and interstate. You might like to stay awhile
and explore this beautiful region. There's a lot to do
- beautiful beaches nearby and the historic town of Tilba
nearby. Visit Bega Cheese and our many wineries, explore
the stunning local national parks.
So
