The Gum Ball

One of Australia’s most cherished cultural escapes, The Gum Ball, returns to the majestic bush lands of Dashville (Wonnarua) for its 19^th chapter, over the last weekend of the April school holidays (NSW) running Thursday 25^th April, through to Sunday 28^th April 2024.

A supreme music and arts festival held at Lower Belford, 1hr west of Newcastle NSW, The Gum Ball is run by a small team of music lovers, and boasts an enviable reputation as one of the best laid-back festivals in existence.

The idyllic family friendly bushland festival is pleased to announce the first taste of a well-considered line up, full of variety and intrigue. A mere sample of what’s to come, with a full line up announcement scheduled for late January 2024 which will include around 40 artists, including a special ANZAC evening concert for those who like to arrive a day early.

Expect an incredible journey of music, covering a huge mix of genre and style, alongside live art, comedy, pro skateboarding, markets, workshops, camping and more.
