The sorely missed VANFEST Music Festival is making its highly anticipated return to Forbes NSW with two events scheduled in 2022.
Kicking off on Saturday 9 April, a scaled back 1-day event aptly called Mini-VANFEST will take place as a teaser before the traditional 2-day format returns with a full line up of international and local artists in December.
In support of the live music industry, regional NSW and the local community the VANFEST team is bringing back all the performances, artists, memories, and magic moments that we’ve been missing these past two years and it is set to be bigger and better than ever! Kicking off with Mini-VANFEST to give fans a taster of what’s to come later in the year.
Pre-sale tickets will go on sale today at 8am and General Public tickets will be available from 10am on Monday 21st February at www.vanfest.com.au
Mini-VANFEST will host a star-studded line up of some of Australia’s hottest artists, featuring legends like Holy Holy, indie-pop icon Julia Stone, Jarryd James, Eves Karydas, Loretta, the rising reggae-rock powerhouse Rum Jungle, Cloe Terare and local supporting acts, keeping true to the event’s grassroots origins.
“The past couple of years have been devastating for our industry, and the regions, so it gives us great pleasure with the aid of NSW Governments Regional Events program and Festivals Australia, that we have the opportunity to support the industry and the local community by adding a smaller event earlier in the year to get people back outdoors and enjoying the things we have all missed so much,” says Matt Clifton, VANFEST Director.
As an all ages, multi-faceted event, Mini-VANFEST is more than just a music festival. The day will include a wide variety of culture, food, indigenous workshops and experiences beyond big name music acts. Guests are encouraged to bring the family, have a picnic, and enjoy food and beverage from the local regions.
As well as bringing much needed tourism and vibrance to what has been a quiet corner of Australia, VANFEST is supporting the local First Nations community with indigenous workshops presented by the Thumbs Up Foundation, teaching local indigenous youth valuable musical skills, providing a platform of support, and even giving the opportunity to perform on stage at the event and meet the featured artists.
Mini-VANFEST is proudly supported by the NSW Government’s Regional Events Program, Festivals Australia, and Forbes Shire Council.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
