Let’s take a look at some of the best family-friendly festivals around the country that you should consider adding to your itinerary.

With so many amazing Aussie family-friendly festivals around the country, it can be difficult to narrow down the options. From music to balloons and food to fairgrounds, there’s something for every family, no matter what your interests are. Hiring a private coach, bus or minibus charter to take you and your family (or group of families) to your festival of choice will allow you to enjoy the convenience that only private transport can only provide.  

Let’s take a look at some of the best family-friendly festivals around the country that you should consider adding to your itinerary.

1. Music Festival Family Fun

While many concerts and festivals are a little too party-centric to be considered family-friendly, there are many quality events in Australia that all age groups can enjoy. Bluesfest, which runs from April 18 to April 22 in Byron Bay, features kid-friendly entertainment with facilities for diaper changing and other amenities for parents.

The National Folk Festival in Canberra runs over the same time period and offers activities and entertainment for children of all ages. Since both of these venues are difficult to reach by public transport, you should consider a private bus charter to ensure you’re not delayed.
