Hi,

I just moved to Australia from the States. Are there climbing festivals in Australia? If yes, any good sites that will give me info on them?

Thanks!

The Buelah Bouldering Festival is held over the easter long weekend, up near Armidale (of all places). Heaps of wicked granite boulders, granite slabbing, dyno comps, slacklining over a dam, lots of booz, tonnes of climbers. It's an awesome atmosphere (and I don't like bouldering!)

Goat Fest is a climbing film festival held every Easter at Natimuk (Arapiles). If Dug sees this he might send you the gen.

5 years ago there was a reincarnation of Escalade in Katoomba... they were going to make it a bi-annual event...
From memory, no one finished the climbing competition; Garth Miller came closest to finishing the first heat... I don't remember what happened in the end.
It rained and was cold.
