Rachel H**e and Geoffrey Badger (both utter musical gems and lovely humans) are ready to take all of us on a beautiful autumn singing journey.

The weekend will also be a festival of delicious local produce. Tickets include catering. Sundramani and Tia are providing dinner on Friday and Saturday night and the wonderful team from Cultural Grounds in Bega are providing morning and afternoon tea and lunch.

We are also providing free tickets to the new youth-driven Southern Lights festival at the Showground, for all choir workshop participants. It is a terrific opportunity to see what creative young people in the Bega Valley are doing. This inaugural event is being produced by Bioluminescence in collaboration with the Yuin Folk Club/Cobargo Folk Festival and other organisations.

The Bega Valley is looking exceptional this autumn - so green and lush and it's still warm enough to swim at Bermi.
This will be a special weekend that will restore, inspire and remind us of the good things in life. And don't we all need this at the moment.

Hope to see some of you there!
