November 9th, 10th & 11th, 2023

---

The Beechworth Heritage Festival has replaced the Beechworth Celtic Festival with a view to widening the range of activities that have been held on this weekend over the past 27 years.

Celtic activities will still be held but we are adding to this with activities celebrating our First Nations culture of our region, the wider culture of our European and other settlers and the Chinese culture of the miners and families who travelled to Beechworth.

One of the highlights and a main attraction over Saturday and Sunday will be activities staged at the Police Paddocks including a display of trades that were undertaken in the 19th and 20th Century that we don’t always see today. Stalls will demonstrate the trades and have products for sale. There will also be food stalls, music and dancing and other activities at the Police Paddocks.

Other activities including a Bobbie Burns Dinner, tours, readings, etc are still being developed.

For all of these activities, applications for stall sites and volunteering as well as sponsoring activities please consult the website beechworthheritagefestival.com.au

On Saturday 11th November, the Rotary Club of Beechworth will also hold their Market and Celtic Music and dancing at Queen Victoria Park as they have done in past years. This will be open to the public from 9.00am to 3.30pm.
