Glen Innes prepares for 2025 Celtic Festival

22nd Apr 2025

Set at the Australian Standing Stones National Monument in Centennial Parklands Glen Innes, the Australian Celtic Festival draws thousands of visitors each year. The Festival is a highlight of the local calendar and a celebration that brings the region together.
In 2025, the spotlight turns to Brittany, Cornwall and Wales, with a rich program of performances, artisan markets, traditional ceremonies and festivities that extend across the township.
Sydney’s Four Frogs Crêperie will bring a taste of Brittany to Glen Innes with traditional crêpes and Breton cider. Local and regional favourites, and guest distillers from Queensland will also be on site with tastings and sales throughout the weekend.
The ACF Celtic Food Trail returns, kicking off from April 28th, with cafés and restaurants across Glen Innes offering themed menus and creative window displays throughout the week.
New to the 2025 program are two exciting additions. The ACF Eisteddfod, to be held at Glen Innes Town Hall on Friday 2 May, will feature traditional Welsh poetry, music and performance. Another new space, The Celtic Cauldron, will offer a dynamic environment for hands-on workshops, presentations and intimate music sessions.
Festival favourites will also make a return, including the official ceremonies and parades, vibrant pipe bands, historical re-enactments, the Highland Games and Celtic Strongman.
The full program will be released on Thursday, April 24th. Shuttle buses will run continuously throughout the weekend between the Glen Innes Visitor Information Centre and the Glen Innes Showgrounds. A drop-off area and limited accessible parking will be available for vehicles with valid permits.
