Probably the world's smallest folk festival, and certainly the most intimate and relaxed. One main stage, home-cooked meals and snacks, cellar door wines, free camping, beautiful open, spacious & peaceful landscape miles from anywhere, yet only 101kms. from Melbourne.

In its eighth year and determined to stay small, intimate and friendly, our annual Folk Festival is set around a marquee in the gardens around the winery and vineyard with nearly 360 degree distant everchanging views of the stunning landscape around the Burke & Wills Track between Lancefield and Mia Mia.

Run by former 'Troubadour' founder Andrew Pattison the event sees around 20 musicians and 200 festival goers enjoy an extremely relaxed weekend of concerts, sing-a-longs, quizzes, wine, food, bushwalking, reading, snoozing under trees, etc.

The musicians love the easy-going atmosphere of this event, and the chance to play for the love of it all weekend, rather than being confined by the rigorous structures of some of the bigger festivals which have outgrown their grass roots beginnings.

How to get there:
We've moved!
The festival use to be the Lancefield Winery Folk Festival at Lancefield Winery, but we've moved recently and become Burke & Wills Winery so the festival is now Burke & Wills Festival at our new Winery in a fantastic location just a few kms. further north and bitumen all the way to our driveway!

Burke & Wills Winery is 31 kms. NW of Lancefield via the Burke & Wills track, in Coombes lane(our driveway), 3155 Burke & Wills Track, Mia Mia. Melway 609 G6, VicRoads Country Directory 60 B2.

From Melbourne go via the Tullamarine Freeway, Melbourne Airport, Bulla, Romsey, drive straight through Lancefield continuing north for 2 kms. and bear left onto Burke & Wills Track (to Baynton and Mia Mia) just after Mustey's Bridge. From there it is approx. 29 kms. to Coombes Lane, which is 4.5 kms. after Watchbox Road, and 1.5 kms. after Haires Lane and Buntings Lane. (You will also pass Knights' Granite Hill Winery a little over half way along the Track.)
