Beechworth Celtic Festival Program

This year there will be a range of venues to suit the variety of performers including the traditional concert venues in the Memorial and Town halls. Other venues supporting the festival include Tanswells Commercial Hotel, Hibernian Hotel, Bridge Road Brewery, Hotel Nicholas and the Empire Hotel. Once again there will be two Free Blackboard stages so any budding musicians are encouraged to register on the day to get a real festival experience. Audiences will enjoy the diversity of free entertainment and provide plenty of encouragement to new acts, it could be the talent unearthed highlight of the festival.

Following on the education and enjoyment created by previous years workshops, there will be a number of workshops for budding musicians and interested audiences. These sessions were a hit in prior years and add real value to the festival ticket. Watch and talk to the people who make the music, pick up the tips to help you enjoy their skill and add to your own knowledge.

Saturday Family Concert allows you to witness a range of bands selected from the weekends program to give a short introduction to their style. It's a great chance to see the range of Celtic music and select the bands you want to take some more time with. Be warned for a family this concert is great value for money and when you see the array of talent it makes the price of the seasons pass look even better. Of course if you are inclined to settle in for a solid nights entertainment you can select from the program enjoy a meal at your favourite hotel and be entertained by a festival band.
