Numeralla Folk Festival

Numeralla Folk Festival ~ The Little Festival with the Big Heart ~ 2023 Festival in planning stage! Sunday morning’s Country Markets showcase local sustainable produce.

Stay tuned.....
Sadly we have not been able to run the festival for the past three years, due to bushfire risks and then COVID restrictions. Generally the annual Numeralla Folk Festival is held at the end weekend every January. It is the last traditional “free” folk festival left in Australia, there are no tickets - (a raffle is run selling tickets to raise funds to keep things going) entertainmen

t and camping are completely free. Come and join us for a long weekend of music, poetry, dance, markets, dips in the river, yarns around the campfire and convivial conversation. Highlights of the festival include bush dances, a fun kid’s program, dance and music workshops (all ages and no prior skill required), and the blackboard concert - seasoned professionals and budding artists can chalk their name up to play a couple of songs, recite a poem, spin a yarn or entertain the crowd in any creative way. Amble about to sample the fresh food delights, pick up a bargain, listen to some Numeralla bluegrass music, or have a cuppa. If all this sounds too hectic, you can simply relax by the river and enjoy the music and the beautiful scenery, or there is always a yarn or a music session happening at the hall or the campsites.

Attention!
For our market stall holders and performers:
This survey from NSW Gov't is to help make it easier for you all to get council approvals for your activities.
We'd love for you to fill it out to help make your lives easier!

Owner of one of these mobile businesses? You currently need approval from each council in every area you operate. We want your feedback on simplifying this so you only need approval once for multiple councils 🙌

It's with heavy hearts that we at the Numeralla Folk Festival would like to share the passing of a festival stalwart, Len Newland.
We will miss seeing Len at the festival, but have some very fond memories of him.

Hi Everyone.
We just have a late call for some lost property -
An iPad in a purple case was misplaced, potentially left at the Tennis Club, but perhaps in the hall.
If anyone knows it's whereabouts, please let me know and I'll pass on details to it's owner.

Hi Folks,
2024 has seen another successful Numeralla Folk Festival come and go.
We’d love to send out a heart felt thanks to everyone who attended - without you, the festival ceases to be, and that would be a damn shame after 47 years.
We would also like to thank our small but dedicated committee, in particular Fran who stepped up to the plate this year and took on many more roles than previous years. Our volunteers in the kitchen & BBQ led by Susan & Craig who cooked up a storm and kept everyone’s bellies full, our bar licensee Glenn, and our market stall coordinator David from Coffee 2630 - Mobile Coffee Trailer
Thanks to our sound man Ian Bull from the Monaro Folk Society, Teagan for the Yoga with Treegan class, Jim & Ingrid Williams for running the Bavarian Dance Workshop, and Paul Mackay for the Drumming Workshop.
Lastly, our amazing performers -
Everyone who wrote their names on the Blackboard for the Saturday Afternoon Open Mic Blackboard Concert
Frankly Charlotte
Jim Williams
Banksi Sisters
Festival Poets - Jan Lewis & Phil McManus
The Bush Dance Band led by Ray Mulligan
Gabi on Guitar
Turnip Sundae

We can’t wait to see everyone again next year for an even bigger festival.

Hi Folks.
Please be aware, there is a fake Numeralla Folk Festival profile circulating. I’m not sure if we should be annoyed or humbled that we’re important enough to appear on the scammers’ radar!
Anyways, we’re not doing live streams, and we’re definitely not going to ask you for money via Facebook.
This is the scammer profile - note the location is Newcastle and the very small number of followers. It also has the name “Numeralla Folk Festival 2024 live” whereas we are simply “Numeralla Folk Festival”

26/01/2024

Howdy folks!

It’s almost time!!!

Quick note - Saturday morning will see fresh coffee from Coffee 2630 - Mobile Coffee Trailer from 8:30am and bacon & egg rolls from 9am.
