Regional Festivals in NSW & ACT 2025-26

We have included regional events to encourage locals (and intrepid visitors) to get out of the city and visit our country cousins. These local events can be a fantastic way to see parts of the country you may have never considered visiting.

Here are some of the biggest regional festivals and events but also check individual What’s On pages in the months above for smaller unique festivals.
