Fairbridge Festival is one of Australia’s most loved, family-friendly music and camping festivals. Held since 1992, it is a place of wonder and magic, with inspiration and delight for all ages at every turn. The next Fairbridge Festival is happening from 14-16 April 2023 – in the middle weekend of the April school holidays. Stay tuned for updates coming soon! We have a massive line-up of artists and performers, from all corners of the globe to right here in our own back yard. Nestled in the beautiful surrounds of Fairbridge Village, the festival site is divided up into a few precincts, to cater for everyone from 1 year olds up to 100 year olds! Over the three days, there is an abundance of music, dance, free workshops, crafts, market stalls, delicious food, street theatre, comedy, in-conversation, jam sessions and so much more! Check out our Access and Inclusion Guide, which shows you all the things we do to ensure that everyone is welcome and able to attend.
