St Albans Folk Festival NSW (just past Wisemans Ferry), held over a weekend close to Anzac Day, is home to quality Traditional & Contemporary Folk Music, Australian Bush Music, Music Sessions, Workshops, Dances, Poetry and Children’s Activities. The event showcases local and international performers, song writers and musicians. The festival runs a market of food, produce and other stalls. Patrons travel for the day or camp on the banks of the McDonald River 20 kms from Wisemans Ferry in the beautiful Hawkesbury River area, North of Sydney and West of Gosford.
The village has one of the oldest pubs in Australia, the Settlers Arms and a Historical Cemetery.
On Darkinjung Country
St Alban’s Folk Festival acknowledges that we meet & play on the land of the Darkinjung people. We wish to pay respect to them, and all Elders – past, present and future, & we acknowledge the important role of all First People’s, the Traditional owners & custodians of this great country.
