The feature event of this third festival will be the re-enactment of a tale from the district’s rich local history, the Battle of Wallendbeen. There will be great horsemanship on display as local riders display their skills in the re-enactment.

The atmosphere will be lively, with two performances during the day from the Bush Dance Display group from Canberra. The dancers will wear period costume and music will be provided by a live folk band. Also in period costume will be two junior award winning buskers.
