G'day Helen,
The Nariel Creek Festival is in a great area with a very strong folk/musical tradition.
I lived just over the border, at Khancoban, NSW, when I worked on the Snowy Mts Hydro Scheme, back in the '60s. I went to the dances run, in Corryong, by the Nariel Creek Band ... but I have never got down for their festivals (which started just about when I returned to Tasmania ... before coming home to Sydney in 1970 after I married).
Lots of great musicians and fine people ... and it will be cooler than Gulgong - where I will be!
