Winterfest at Hawkesbury Showground

Step into a world of myth, magic and medieval marvels at Winterfest, returning to the Hawkesbury Showground this July. This immersive, all-ages event is part medieval fair, part fantasy spectacular – and 100% family fun.

Winterfest at Hawkesbury Showground

Across two action-packed days, visitors can immerse themselves in combat displays, birds of prey in free flight, and real-life jousting that'll have the whole crowd cheering.

Little ones can meet mermaids and unicorns, while grown-ups can enjoy artisan markets, cooking demos, and live medieval trade showcases.

Don your best costume (or just come to admire others) and take part in the beloved Costume & Cosplay Competition, or cheer from the sidelines as warriors, knights and adventurers take to the Field of Arms.

From swordplay to silversmiths, falconry to fantasy – Winterfest has something for everyone. Accessible, pram-friendly and just a short walk from Clarendon Station, it’s an unforgettable winter weekend for the whole family.
