Bobby Jack's Festival is an all ages, non-for-profit Music and Arts Festival, held at the Showgrounds in Walcha, NSW Australia.

The idea behind the festival is to promote local, "original" artists of all genres and to give them a platform to showcase their music and art.

The festival features two stages: The main stage, for established acts; and the "Get Out Of Your Garage" stage, which offers lesser known musicians the chance to play in a festival environment. Applications to play are accepted through the festival's website.

Bobby Jack's Festival also plays host to variety of sideshow acts and offers free children's entertainment and workshops. Local food and beverage vendors showcase some of the finest the New England Region has to offer.

At dusk, the sculptural bonfire takes place, which is a tribute to Bobby Jack Waugh; whose name the festival carries.

Camping is available. Family & Pet-friendly
