| It might be the big deal that it is for a city that swells to twice its size in January - but it wasn't always like this. The Tamworth Country Music Festival has come a long way in less than 40 years. It's a happening thing and the experience is a top tourist attraction.
|
Tamworth is ideally situated halfway between Brisbane and Sydney on the New England Highway, approximately 5 hours drive from both cities. The good news is, Tamworth is also readily accessible by air, coach or train with regular services daily.
|
Visitors are spoilt for choice in Tamworth. You can make yourself right at home at any one of 60-plus places to stay - from the convenience of stylish, modern motels and apartments, to the charm and character of B&Bs, or the down-home comfort of caravan parks and camping grounds.
|
The music is non-stop and so is the fun and party atmosphere. Everywhere you go in Tamworth during the Festival, you'll discover sensational live entertainment, street buskers, and the hottest happening shows at more than 60 great venues across the city.
|
Some of the most famous faces of the festival echo the heritage and history of the Country Music Capital. Around the city the reminders of the culture of country music are hard to miss. They make up the magic memories and moments of the January event.
