A whopping 438 artists will be converging on Woodfordia over New Year’s Eve for the epic institution that is the Woodford Folk Festival.
This year’s festival will again be held at its traditional 500-acre parkland site in Woodford, Queensland (about an hour north of Brisbane). Angus Stone, Julia Stone, Kate Miller-Heidke, Jeff Martin and The Saints are some of the headliners listed for this year’s event. But to be honest, there’s that many acts on the bill, you’re sure to find more than enough personal favourites to last you the entire event.
Tickets are now on sale from the festival’s official website, and they range from $7-$470 – depending on how old you are. The prices are valid until December 24.
