With Christmas just around the corner, why not buy tickets for your friends and family? The 2025 festival has performances for all ages, showcasing all styles of country music.
Tickets are selling like hot potatoes for The Wiggles, which will perform at the Australian Equine and Livestock Events Centre (AELEC) on January 21.

If you’re yet to hit the shops or have missed posting presents, buying tickets for the adults in your life could be the answer! Celebrate local artists like Ashleigh Dallas and Jayne Denham or returning artists like Troy Cassar-Daley, Beccy Cole and Adam Harvey.
It's also time to look out for the 2025 official guide! Hot off the press, pre-ordered books have been posted. Copies are available at participating newsagents in Tamworth and Collins Booksellers on Tamworth's Peel Street.
The Toyota 53rd Tamworth Country Music Festival can also be enjoyed on a budget. One of the biggest Festival thrills is experiencing a free show at Toyota Park – our largest and loudest venue. Every night of the 10-day Festival, fans are invited to pitch a camp chair or roll out a picnic rug and buckle in for hours of world-class entertainment.
Many artists who appear on the Toyota Park stage can also be spotted on the FanZone stage throughout the Festival. Kicking off at 9am daily, FanZone gives festival-goers the opportunity to see artists up close and perform free. The line-up features more than 200 artists, with appearances from 30 big names to be announced during the festival.
