Hi all

Some info about this year's Cobargo Folk Festival, which is next weekend - 6-8 May

The concert grid is attached.

All camping tickets must be pre-purchased online with a weekend season ticket. Only 80 weekend tickets with camping are left.

We’ve put together an all-Australian program this year with some new faces for us including 19Twenty, Craigie Marsh, The Pigs and Boneman, and some festival favourites. It's our pleasure to have Judy Small, On the Stoop, The Beez, Luke O'Shea and Jan "Yarn" Wositzky back on our stages.

There are three great stages, plus a Saturday blackboard, places for sessions and acoustic jams, and workshops.

 We hope to see many of you at the Cobargo Concert - a chance to thank the many festival supporters who donated to help the Cobargo community after the fires, to hear a selection of songs written since the bushfires of 2019/2020 and to hear about the recovery journey from some local Cobargo residents. 

We are very pleased to introduce the Yuin Elders' Tent this year with a yarnin 'circle where everyone is welcome. We hope that this will become a place for sharing stories, enjoying cultural workshops, and for healing. 

As for Covid - your health is your personal responsibility.  We all know that people have different attitudes to dealing with Covid.  We have a plan, our venues are regarded as open air and will be well ventilated with the sides up, unless there is very heavy rain.  

And please remember, the constantly changing health regulations coupled with the bad weather have made putting on this festival quite difficult and stressful.  Don’t expect everything to be perfect and please be super kind to all the volunteers who have made this happen. 

Hope to see you at the festival!
The Cobargo Folk Festival Organising Team
