Bell Beats - Music and Arts Festival

Cowra is set to host an exciting new event with the introduction of the Bell Beats Music and Arts Festival.

The festival will take place in the Civic Square and Cultural Precinct on Darling Street and will run annually across the October long weekend until 2027.

The Bell Beats Festival will bring Cowra's town centre to life with a dynamic program of nationally recognised performers, local musicians, artists, and a creative arts precinct featuring ephemeral art installations, video projection and artmaking workshops. The event will also include family-friendly entertainment, local food and wine, and a strong focus on
community participation.

Bell Beats Festival 2025 will be free to attend and promises to offer an inclusive and vibrant experience for all ages. Come along, enjoy a full day of live entertainment, sample delicious food from local producers, discover new regional brewery options and celebrate everything that makes Cowra such a special place to live and visit.

Bell Beats Festival is proudly funded by the NSW Government's Open Streets Program, led by Transport for NSW, with a total funding allocation over three years to support the development and delivery of the event.
