Welcome to Wellyfest!

The Wellington Folk Festival is held every Labour Weekend, celebrated on the fourth weekend of October, at Brookfield Outdoor Education Centre – a beautiful site owned by the Scouts at 562 Moores Valley Road, Wainuiomata, Lower Hutt, New Zealand.

The Festival gate is open from 3pm on the Friday, with events running over Friday evening, all day Saturday through to Sunday evening. You can come for the weekend, for a day, half day or an evening. Children (0 - 12) can attend free.

Weekend passes entitle the holders to camp onsite and there are a limited number of bunks available for sale as well.

This year, we also have special 60th merchandise - t-shirts and hoodies - click here to check it out!
