The festival takes place in the magical setting of Central Tilba’s main street with its colourful 100-year-old buildings. The entire village and surrounding lush volcanic farmland rolling down to the ocean, have been protected by the National Trust and is just a short drive south from Narooma.
Children will be entertained by the Great Zamboni the magician, and the “Pat the Possum” show. Rides, street games and the reptile awareness show take place throughout the day.
The traditional bushies boot throw and egg toss games are open to all comers. To reconnect with our rural heritage, exhibitions will include sheep shearing, whip cracking and rumours of a new game for the day: the udder toss!
The Festival prides itself on promoting and supporting local talent. This year, a Youth Talent Quest will be held, along with a special stage to showcase the diversity of dance performers in our area. This will provide opportunities for our young up and coming performers to get on stage and gain valuable performance experience. |

Pets of all shapes and sizes are welcome to attend the Pet Parade, to be held for the first time. Best Dressed and most unusual pets of all shapes and sizes will strut their stuff along the main street.
Easter Saturday is the one day each year when Bate Street is closed to traffic and open to a huge array of culture and festivities. A modest donation ($5-adults, $2 kids 2-16) covers a full day’s entertainment.
The festival is proud to be a volunteer non-profit community project, free of corporate sponsorship, and dedicated to a day of fun for everyone who attends.
Don’t miss this opportunity to experience a classic community festival day, with a unique rural flavour. Be sure to join in the colour and laughter that flows from this Historic village of Tilba on Easter Saturday.
