The River Folk Festival is an annual 3-day event staged across multiple venues throughout the idyllic Yarra Valley township of Warburton. Our bespoke festival is a gathering of international, national, regional and local folk artists celebrating place, cultural diversity & creativity.
Our stellar program offers curated performance experiences across the entire weekend including:
FRIDAY: Opening Showcase Concert at The Arts Centre Warburton
SATURDAY: Sisters of Song Women's Showcase | Children's Space
SUNDAY: Finale Director's Concert
The River Folk Festival 2026 is made possible by the generous support of Visit Victoria, Festivals Australia, Yarra Ranges Council & numerous Yarra Valley local business sponsors.
This land is Wurundjeri land - always was and always will be.
The River Folk Festival acknowledges the Wurundjeri Peoples of the Kulin Nation, and recognises the continuing connection to lands, waters & communities of the Yarra Valley. We pay our deepest respect to Elders past and present.
