Welcome to the Frances Folk Gathering!

What a party! Hope you're ready for the 2011 event! The dates are February 25th, 26th and 27th, 2011.Night Scene

Our eleventh Gathering was fun right from the start!

Those who have been to the Frances Folk Gathering before will already have a good idea of what it's all about.

Fun TimesFor those of you who haven't, browse around in our site and discover the fun and camaraderie that infects this part of Australia in late February every year.

Discover how the tiny village of Frances in South Australia's South East opens its hearts to visiting folkies from all parts of South Australia, Victoria and beyond, for a fun-filled weekend of music, merriment, dance, competitions, concerts, workshops and much, much more.

The 2010 Gathering has just finished and while we're catching our breath (puff puff) and restoring some sense of normality after a pretty hectic weekend, we're just in the throes of planning some updates to the site. Shortly we'll have some photos for you to look at.

Did you go? If so, (or if not - either way) you can grab a copy of the program to wave at your less fortunate colleagues to show them what they missed. Download it here (a PDF, about 470MB).
