Once again the Woodfordia site was transformed into a vibrant village, welcoming an aggregate attendance of 100,000 patrons for six days of music, culture, and community.

Festival goers were treated to a diverse program featuring over 450 performers across 1600+acts, on 27 stages.

Beyond the music, attendees immersed themselves in a kaleidoscope of experiences.

Workshops ranged from acrobatics, blacksmithing and spoon-playing to Flamenco and hip-hop dance, while discussions on sustainability and cultural restoration drew thought leaders like Jeff Hanson of Sea Shepherd and SBS’s Elder-in-Residence Rhoda Roberts.
