The media has dubbed it Narrandera's amazing festival and the 5day John O'Brien Bush Festival will be no less amazing when it hums to life again in March 2007.
We can only look forward to a festival with all the elements that make for a wonderful festival experience: humour, music, talent, tradition and friendly faces. For the uninitiated this means there’ll be busking, bush dancing, poet’s breakfasts, and comedy shows. There’ll be get-together’s, pub sessions, luncheons and singalongs. There’ll be a parade, a craft fair, an art exhibition and an Anzac tribute. There’ll be street performers and a parade. And there’ll a touch of the Irish, evident in dance and in song.
The Festival celebrates Narrandera’s connection with John O’Brien, the author of some of Australia’s most popular poetry. Said Hanrahan, Tangmalangaloo and The Old Bush School. It celebrates the Irish-Australian connection, that is so evident in the poetry, and it celebrates the best of bush culture.
