Gen Info – Festival of the Fleeces

General Information

On this page you will find general information for all those attending and participating in the festival.

A LONGER HISTORY

Merriwa lies on the border of the Wannaruah and Wiradjuri nation and is said to have been the traditional meeting place for a number of nations.

We wish to pay our respects to our First Nation's elders – past, present and emerging – and honour the important role they play in our history and our community today.

FOR THE COMMUNITY

Merriwa's Festival of the Fleeces is a not-for-profit event run by community volunteers and supported by the Upper Hunter Shire Council.

Proceeds from the festival go towards the Merriwa Volunteer Rescue Association and Westpac Rescue Helicopter. These organisations provide a critical service to all who live in and pass through our area.
