The 35th Illawarra Folk Festival is 4 exciting summer days of folk, world, roots, bluegrass, gypsy and celtic music and poetry, comedy and dance thrown in for good measure.

The festival has long attracted international and national performers, who have helped establish it firmly on the national music calendar.

Set in the spectacular northern Illawarra Escarpment, enjoy more than 170 acts performing at 500 events over four days.... the largest folk festival in NSW.

There's superb music, a colourful array of international food stalls, festival bar, craft stalls and on-site camping.

Be inspired and involved. Book into the 2 Day Folk Music School as well and hone your musical talents!

Have fun with friends - camp onsite. Plenty of carparking onsite or come on special Music Train from Sydney.
