National Folk Festival Easter 2008

Hi,

The National Folk Festival Easter 2008 is going to be underway from 20 to 24 March at the Exhibition Park in Canberra.
If you like, have a look at http://www.folkfestival.asn.au - phone 02 6249 7755.

I have heared that it is very civilised and has world class musical artists.

Hope there is something for you.

Cheers,
CD

Today is your LAST chance to purchase an early, early bird ticket !

I have been told by one of the volunteers that even though the site states
that this early, early bird ticket would need to be purchased by the 25th of January:
due to the long weekend, purchases are being processed on Tuesday.
So you still have the opportunity to save dollars if you purchase today :D

The National is a great festival. Been going there on and off for about 10 years. If you camp make sure you get there early to get a powered site to charge your batteries and run your laptop.
