What’s On

The historic village of Cobargo, on the NSW Far South Coast, hosts the Cobargo Folk Festival, now into its third decade.

Produced by the Yuin Folk Club and first held in 1996, this festival of music, dance, song, comedy, poetry, fun and fine food and drink, attracts thousands of visitors to one of the most beautiful regions of Australia, the lush Bega Valley.

Folk music is music that comes out of community. It includes the tunes and songs from cultures all over the world – Aboriginal songs, music and dances, Celtic, English, Scottish, bluegrass, Old Timey, African, Indian, Spanish, South American and more  – a huge range. At our festival you will find concerts, workshops, dances, poetry events, singing and tunes sessions across a range of musical genres that make up our vibrant folk culture.

The festival is held in a beautiful rural setting with ample space and excellent facilities (including onsite camping with all amenities). Being fully self-contained means it is great for young children and the festival is very family friendly.

The Cobargo Showground is a short walk to the Cobargo village where there is a good pub, coffee shops, craft and antique shops and a service station. A huge range of food and craft stalls are also provided as part of the festival.

The Bermagui Growers Market, held at the Bermagui Fishermen’s Wharf complex each Thursday from 2.30pm, is the place to go to stock up your kitchen as well as the ready to eat goodies prepared just for the occasion.  Think oysters, breads, freshly harvested fruit and vegetables, spices and sauces and sweet treats and more. When the market closes, grab a spot on the foreshore to watch the sun go down. Support local growers and makers!

Sculpture Bermagui, one of the region’s top five flagship events, is held over 10 days each March in unspoilt coastal wilderness of magnificent forests, fields, beaches and headlands.

Beautiful Dickinson Point headland and foreshore host the outdoor works, conversations with artists and public torchlight tours, as well as music and fire spectacles. The indoor works are curated in the nearby Community Centre to enable their appreciation out of the elements.
