Grab your boot scootin' baby for an evening of hip bumpin', music thumpin', knee hitchin', heel and toe – Council is bringing Camden’s first country music festival to town!
Boots n’ Beats will be held on Saturday 18 June, 3-9pm, at Camden Town Farm.
The event promises to have y’all partying ‘til the cows come home, with something for everyone to enjoy. It is set to include:
- Food and drink stalls, including local breweries, smoked meats, corn on the cob and burgers;
- Product stalls;
- Line dancing;
- Roving entertainment;
- Animal nurseries;
- Pony rides;
- Country craft activities for kids; and
- Boots ‘n’ Beats branded cowboy hats.
The headline act, as well as supporting acts, are guaranteed to knock your socks off – but we’re holding our horses on this part of the event for now. Residents and visitors are encouraged to keep an eye on Council’s Facebook page for an exciting competition and grand reveal in mid-May.
Mayor of Camden, Cr Theresa Fedeli, said Boots n’ Beats was Council’s first major event since before the pandemic.
“It brings me so much joy to be talking about an upcoming event,” Cr Fedeli said.
“Between the pandemic, lockdowns and wild weather events, we’ve just had postponement after postponement of late. It has been way too long since we’ve been able to get together as a community and enjoy one of the great events Council puts on.
“And what better way to kick-start our event calendar again with a brand-new event?
“Think hay bales, wine barrels, cowboy hats and boots – all those typical country elements all in one place, with great food, entertainment and quality time spent with loved ones. I’m looking forward to seeing you all there!”
