Country Music Festival Tamworth
Don’t miss Australia’s largest music festival, the 50th Tamworth Country Music Festival. This year the highlight of our tour is sure to be the Cavalcade as we watch the parade of music stars and groups in their procession along Peel Street. The whole of Tamworth comes alive at festival time, with buskers, open air concerts and air conditioned venues across town. So plan your trip to mark off your ‘must see’ performers or unearth someone new.

Welcome – Festival Centre
After a hearty cooked breakfast our coach will be visiting the Country Music Festival Centre, for our orientation hints and tips, maps and souvenirs. More than 70% of the shows are free, but if you have something special on your list, now is the time to purchase your tickets. The rest of the day is yours to enjoy the festival at your own pace; perhaps bring a chair to watch the acts, or head indoors to the air conditioned venues. Enjoy some of the night time performances if you wish returning to the hotel when you are ready. Lunch and dinner is at your own expense today.
