Boolarra Folk Festival goes virtual for 2021
The planning for the 2021 Boolarra Folk Festival is well underway with a major change to our award winning festival that has been operating for 18 consecutive years. The festival will be going virtual, streaming out to the world to promote our event over two days commencing on February 27th in 2021.
The format for the 2021 festival will stream live with selected musicians who have performed over the last 18 years, hosted by a special and well known presenter. We look forward to using innovative ways to promote the market stall holders and community groups that have made been a major part of previous festivals.
Keeping music live during these tough times is important for our health and wellbeing, and we need to assist our communities and musicians by presenting this new approach.
