National Celtic Folk Festival

Portarlington is calling.

The Bellarine Peninsula turns up the heat each winter with four days of Folk, Arts and some Celtic magic along the foreshore and through the heart of town.

Get ready for a whirlwind of live music, cosy bars, bustling markets, toe-tapping dances, inspiring workshops, wild sessions, and hearty food to keep you fuelled. Throw in theatre, writers, kids' entertainment, caber tossing, Irish hurling, and all kinds of Celtic mischief and you've got yourself a festival like no other.

Whether you are coming for the day or staying the whole weekend, warm your soul and delight your senses in the spirit of this national celebration.

Save the date and get ready to dive into the fun.
