Behind the scenes last year, the team of volunteers searched for distinguished adjudicators and venues and have made some updates to the program for 2024.

“After our survey in 2023 we received some lovely feedback and some suggestions which we have taken on board for 2024,” said Debbie.

Once again, the Eisteddfod is utilising numerous venues including the Coffs Harbour Jetty Memorial Theatre, Lifehouse Church, Coffs Harbour Conservatorium and Coffs Harbour Education Campus.

The first event is Vocal commencing 18 May, followed by Drama, Choirs, Instrumental, finishing with the Dance final on 22 June including Gala Concerts.

All details are on both the Coffs Harbour & District Eisteddfod website and Facebook page.

“We continue to be grateful to our sponsors once again RJK Optometry and also Baringa Private Hospital for their support to community performing arts,” said Debbie.
