The Boyup Brook Country Music Festival is Western Australia’s premier Country Music Festival. Five big days of music, fun and laughter. The 2011 event will see Troy Cassar-Daley, Felicity Urquhart and Peter Denahy taking the stage amongst other artists.

This event is particularly important to Western Australia as it is the biggest and most successful country music festival.

The festival attracts all ages, providing a friendly atmosphere of entertainment and a great weekend away.

With public support the event has grown from a one day festival to a five day refreshingly authentic country music extravaganza. This brings the grass roots of country music to Boyup Brook, where followers can experience a blend of national artists and original artists from Western Australia in a friendly, country setting. Then, winding down on the Sunday with a traditional Bush Poets' Breakfast and great music.
