The annual raffle remains important as Folkworld, the presenters of Fairbridge Festival, scope out new venues to hold the annual folk festival. Fairbridge Festival was held at Fairbridge Village annually since 1993, but was no longer able to be held there due to concerns about the impact the festival was having on the historic site. The good news is that now after reviewing 32 possible sites, Folkworld have shortlisted these down to four locations, which are now under consideration.
Tickets are on sale now for the Folkworld/Fairbridge Festival Annual Raffle from rafflelink.com.au. The raffle closes on Friday, June 16 and the winners will be drawn on Saturday, June 17, 2023. For updates on Fairbridge Festival’s search for a new home, head to fairbridgefestival.com.au
