National Celtic Festival

Widely recognised as the premier Celtic festival in the Southern Hemisphere, the National Celtic Festival is a step inside seven unique Celtic lands. While it’s a little early to be able to give you too much news (seriously, we would if we could), we do know the festival takes place from June 5 through June 8. Our own Tex Miller spent time there last year: “There is a well-kept secret on the Bellarine Peninsula: on a wintery long weekend in June, the ‘clans’ gather in the seaside town of Portarlington … If you are prepared to be entertained with a variety of music, dance, workshops and song, this unique festival should definitely be on your calendar.” Throw nationalcelticfestival.com in your bookmarks.
