Welcome to the webpage of the Uranquinty Annual Folk Festival.
"The Uranquinty Folk Festival reminds us that there are still many decent people around. Families and friends who can enjoy a simple experience in a beautiful spot, where you make your own entertainment with like minded folk. Relaxing and rejuvenating, 'Quinty' can revive your soul and your faith in humanity". Danny Spooner

On this land for many thousands of years the traditional owners of Australia have celebrated and shared their culture through stories, songs, dance and music. For more than half a century the Uranquinty Folk Festival has similarly shared music and stories here on Wiradjuri country. We acknowledge the Wiradjuri and their elders, past, present and emerging who care for this country, and offer our respect and thanks to them. May music bring people of all cultures and countries together in harmony.
