CresFest
CresFest returns 4-6 April, 2025. Weekend tickets and day tickets plus accommodation options will go on sale late 2024. https://cresfest.com.au/tickets/
Our festival is growing a huge reputation, punching well above its weight, and after only two years was announced the Best Community Cultural Project of 2023 at the Australian Folk Music Awards.
CresFest is about the joy of live music – playing it, hearing it, watching it, dancing to it, learning it being inspired by it – it all happens in one small Victorian town, as we bring that ‘Star’s Hollow’ warmth to Creswick, just 15 minutes from Ballarat.
With our fourth CresFest in April 2025, you will again enjoy three days of dance and music in the beautiful heritage town of Creswick. A huge range of performers, from international stars to local newcomers will entertain you over the weekend of Friday 4 April – Sunday 6 April. Wander from venue to venue all within easy walking distance of our lovely old Town Hall.
More than concerts, you’ll have the chance to participate through a dense packed program of workshops including singing, dancing and playing. There’s something for everyone, and budding performers can enter our IGA Busking Competition for great prizes or sign up for open mic spots.
Local players are invited to learn from and perform with our visiting professionals, in a true two way collaboration that brings new skills and renewed enthusiasm to our musicians.
When: 5th- 7th April 2024
Where: Multiple venues across Creswick
