The Forncett Festival is a new musical gathering, a micro festival nested in the beautiful Tas Valley and held together by the gravity of the Forncett Industrial Steam Museum.
Our main musical stage and bar will be inside the museum’s stunning Hopwas Beam Engine Gallery, also known as the Steam Café.
Created by musicians and run by volunteers, the Forncett Festival is an invitation to come and be part of a new creative collective, a first step towards something bigger and long-lasting.
The weekend will include featured artists, open mics, beautiful garden surroundings to explore and fireside food, with entry on a pay-what-you-can basis to support the musicians. Come and escape, share and receive, listen and belong.
