The
Woolgoolga Curryfest is an amazing annual
signature event bringing thousands together to celebrate
the cultural diversity of this scenic seaside
village.
The curry theme links our major
ethnic group, the Sikh Indians (largest regional Sikh
settlement in Australia) as well as representations from
many other groups from Germany, Thailand, Holland,
England, and Scotland.
The main event will
be staged on Saturday 17th April, 2010. Click here >>

Entertainment
· As
well as a range of international cuisine featuring
the
curry theme, there will be music, dance
and
entertainment from many cultural groups
who have
performed nationally and
internationally.
· We will also be staging
the finals for our FutureStar
Competition
at Curryfest 2010.
· Along with this
exciting entertainment schedule we
have
applied to council to close the main street of
Woolgoolga so we can hold a national racing
bike
competition in the main street which will
bring an extra
2000 spectators and create an
atmosphere like no other.
· A major factor
in numbers expected this year is the
Sikh Games also held in Woolgoolga over the
same
Easter weekend. This is expected to
draw an additional
10,000 competitors and
spectators in to the area.
Festival

non-profit incorporated organisation, which is a

funding and structure. This year Business Event Productions
