If you are not going to the
Sleaze Ball over the October long weekend and feel like getting out of town (a long way out of town) then the
Bellingen Global Carnival looks fantastic.
They've got about 50 different acts on 5 stages over 3 days along with workshops, activities, lots to keep the kids happy, craft stalls, food from around the world, and that's just the start. Check out the website for the
full list of festival fun.
Bellingen is located 26km south of Coffs Harbour, roughly halfway between Sydney and Brisbane. It's a beautiful area with lots to see if one day of festival going is enough.
You could either drive up (5-6 hours), catch a plane to Coffs Harbour, or take a bus to Urunga.
A range of different tickets from single night passes to the full weekend with camping included can be purchased
here.
Why? Indulge your inner hippie.
