Information

The Woodford Folk Festival is held annually over six days and six nights, from Dec 27th through to January 1st. More than 2,000 local, national and international, artists, musicians and presenters grace the stages of Woodfordia. The festival begins each year with the iconic Opening Ceremony and closes with the spectacular showcase, on New Year’s Day. This year will be the 37th Woodford Folk Festival and the 30th held at Woodfordia. It is the largest gathering of artists and musicians in Australia.The Woodford festival experience is deep, rich and colourful. It is based on a vision of inclusive and creative community, culture and tradition passed through generations, expressed through story and ceremony. The site, a former barren dairy farm, has been lovingly regenerated with over 120,000 subtropical rain forest trees, orchids, ferns and sedges, planted to create a habitat for butterflies and wildlife.Over the festival, Woodfordia is transformed into a village that hosts over 25,000 daily patrons, performers, stallholders, volunteers and organisers. As many as 2,680 volunteers across 162 departments are at the heart of the organisation and contribute to the setup and day-to-day running of the festival. During the event, the festival is actually the 67th largest town in Australia.Each year construction begins in early December and continues up until Christmas Day. Nearly 1000 volunteers and contractors build the village. Many come from around the world to be part of the festival build, enjoy the festivities, and then stay for a week after to pull it all down.
