National Folk Festival: programs and related material collected by the National Library of Australia, 1970 -

Abstract Or Scope
The National Folk Festival was first held in Melbourne in 1967, and was initiated by The Victorian Folk Music Club, The Monash Traditional Music Society, the Burwood Teachers Folk Club and performers Martin Wyndham Reed and Glen Tomasetti. From 1969 until 1991 the festival traveled interstate each year, and was hosted at least once in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Canberra, Brisbane, Fremantle, Alice Springs, Perth, Kurunda and Maleny. The increasing size of the festival made it harder for the hosting states to organise the festival every year, so since 1992 the festival has been held each year in Canberra, with a 'feature state' on the program - providing increased performance opportunities for artists from that state. The Festival takes place at Exhibition Park in Canberra, and is held from Easter Thursday - Easter Monday.
