Clarence Valley Camp Oven Festival is back

Come and celebrate our wonderful Aussie outdoor lifestyle, love of the bush and the natural environment at the Clarence Valley Camp Oven Festival from August 17-19. Our fourth Festival promises to be another fantastic event with a range of delicious food stalls, live music, street theatre, the kid’s zone, bush poetry and the ever-popular Bush Dance. Demonstrations include local blacksmiths, vintage farm engines, and dog obedience and of course the mouthwatering camp oven food! The light up hooping performance promises to be a visual treat for all during a break in the Saturday night Bush Dance which is always a highlight of the Festival. For $25 enjoy a sit-down meal of gastronomical delights then cast your vote as a people’s choice judge (limited to 25 tickets). Consider yourself a camp oven master chef? Get a team together and enter the competitions, there are some great prizes. Food and performances from around the world embrace our multicultural heritage and the diverse cultures living in the Clarence Valley. The Camp Oven Festival celebrates wholesome family fun, camping, cooking outside and sitting around the campfire having a good yarn with great people. The staff and volunteers at Nymboida Camping and Canoeing are working tirelessly to put together another great event for you and the family to enjoy. All proceeds from the Camp Oven Festival go toward maintaining and improving this not for profit community facility.
