A favourite for those who like a bit of cool oozed over their country, with a myriad of artistic collaborations, family activities & laid back old-school country-inspired fun. Join us for an incredibly indulgent long weekend of killer music, sweet camping and much needed hang times in the bush at Dashville. The main festival runs Friday 4th, Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th October, with the option to tack on an early arrival from 2pm on the Thursday 3rd October. Thursday entry is a great option for those who like to get in early and set up, particularly good for caravanners. Thursday night is a seperate ticket to the full weekend festival and yes there will be live music on the Thursday night.
