Original Post:

We are sad to announce that WEFTFest 2026 will not take place.

Unfortunately we have been unable to secure the funding required to put on the quality of show you have all come to expect. 

Disappointed by this we will continue in our efforts to raise funds with the hope that we can produce this festival in 2027. 

If you would like to support us in these efforts, contributions can be made to the Three Sisters Cultural Centre which is our not for profit mandated to support local artists in their professional endeavours.
