15.01.2022 Hi All, We are letting everyone know that we have had to reschedule this years' festival. NEW DATES 1st -3rd of MAY 2020 (Fri.Sat.Sun) The reason for the postponement is the recent bushfire events and the threat of fires for the remainder of the month. This has made holding an event such as this in February inadvisable.
