The Festival offers a choice of 14 venues. There are 6 tents erected on the park in addition to halls and other buildings throughout the village.
There will be concerts, including the Close Up series and workshops during the Festival, and of course the traditional Bluegrass on Saturday night which fills up very quickly, so get there early for a seat. Meals are also available at the Club from Wednesday night.
This venue is a tent and will feature the Blackboard concert on Saturday evening. At other times the venue will have instrument and tune learning workshops. It is a tent situated in the north east corner of the Park
The Festival Pub Tent will not only provide patrons with refreshment but also a lively venue where performers can be heard in a more intimate, convivial atmosphere. Watch out for special events including the 'Woolly Yarn Spinning Championship', The Great Limerick Competition, and the Guinness World Record attempt for the World’s Largest Penny Whistle Band. Guinness will be on tap along with cider and wine and light refreshments.
The Pub will ring to the sounds of musicians in a Session. A session is an informal gathering of musicians with a like interest in music. Spontaneity is the major ingredient. Meals available all Festival from the Pub Bistro.
A special Festival radio station situated near the Reception Tent where you can hear music from past and present Festival performers. There will also be a number of live interviews with performers.
The Main Marquee on the Park is the venue with the major concerts and the World Dance Party on Saturday night. Other concerts include the unique School Children’s Concerts on Thursday and Friday and the Guinness Major Concert on Sunday afternoon. Breakfasts will available on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
This year the hall will host an extensive programme of dancing and finishing with a special theatre production – Barking Mad.
An acoustic venue focusing on the great tradition of folk singing and music. There will be a selection of acoustic voice and instrument workshops and the Chorus Time Concert on Saturday evening.
A new venue for the session musicians to sing, play and make merry while still near the Festival Pub Tent Tent!
A new open air venue in the middle of the Park where there will be lots of street theatre, dancing and music performances. The Grove is also where the Recycled Music Machine will be made and the start of the Parades on Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon. Saturday and Sunday early mornings feature a Tai Che session.
During the daytime the venue is used primarily for children’s events. At other times there will instrument, poetry and sessions. This venue is a tent situated on the northern side of the Park.
Situated next under the trees it will feature folk dancing demonstrations and outdoor entertainment. The stage is surrounded by the food and craft stalls creating a country piazza!
This is the new revamped tent at the eastern end of the Park, previously known as the World Lounge Tent. There will be lounges, colourful decorations, lanterns and a World Lounge Café giving this venue a very special and hopeful relaxed atmosphere.
The Youth Hall is probably the cosiest venue at the Festival with workshops and theme concerts during the day and the very popular Folk by Candlelight Concerts during the evenings. This year the main theme will be Voices of Australia, a unique project held in conjunction with the National Library of Australia featuring older traditional performers. Many of the other popular performers are scheduled there late at night. There will also be food available from Arch & Lisa’s Soup Kitchen on Friday and Saturday evenings.
