From local produce at the farmers markets and regular monthly markets, to classical and folk music festivals, there is something to suit everyone.
Arts in the Valley holds a biennial arts festival in Kangaroo Valley. The next festival is in May 2021. In addition Arts in the Valley presents music concerts and visual arts events throughout the year.
Since 2007, Arts in the Valley has brought some of the finest musicians, artists and writers in Australia to Kangaroo Valley for our concerts, exhibitions and festivals.
The Kangaroo Valley show includes traditional competitions such as the Dairy and Beef judging; Show Jumping, the Horse Class Judging , the Poultry Pavilion, the Wood Chopping, the Champion Dog Show and of course The Grand Parade. There are the favourites such as the Children’s Bicycle races, Pet show, Dog Races, Tug o’ War, Talent Quest and for the willing, the Iron Person event. For the young at heart we again have rides, carnival games, showbags, a variety of cuisine and other stalls to choose from.
