Wirrina Bluegrass & Acoustic Roots Festival

“That’s a wrap” for the 2024 Festival!  And what a weekend it was… sunshine, rain, and plenty of beautiful weather moments punctuated fabulous main stage performances, workshops, open mic sets and jamming. 

Check out Ian Fisk’s photo’s of the weekend here: Ian Fisk’s Wirrina 2024 photo’s.

Sessions

There are many options for sessions and  jamming at Wirrina Festivals So bring your instrument/s and join in the fun!

Irish/Celtic, Bluegrass and Old Time sessions, plus spontaneous sessions of any style can be held in the Open Mic tent, the Workshop tent  and around the fire pits after the end of programmed events each evening.

During performances

Our performers come from far and wide and rehearse hard to play for Wirrina audiences. Please be aware that jamming, talking and other noise travels far, so we ask you to keep that in mind when near concerts on the main stage and open mic stage. Please turn mobile phones to silent, give your attention to the performers and move away from the stages for chatting and socialising— there is plenty of space for this that won’t disrupt concerts.

Many thanks for being mindful.
