30th September - 2nd October 2005 - Mungindi, NSW From our Festival Director Mark Walton...
 This very special Australian Festival will not only bring music to the town of Mungindi and surrounding area but will also give amateur musicians from around Australia the wonderful opportunity to make music in a most extraordinary location. The Mungindi Music Festival will be an unforgettable experience, both musically and socially.
Some of Australia's leading musicians will not only be performing at the Mungindi Festival but even more importantly they will be there to share their expertise and enthusiasm with all the participants. You might find yourself sitting in the Festival Orchestra next to our patron, Don Burrows. This Festival is all about getting involved, making new friends and simply having fun.

Who can take part?
To make this Festival a huge success we are looking for choirs, orchestras, bands, pianists and individual instrumentalists and singers to come and perform. The Festival concerts will be held in some amazing and surprising local venues from shearing sheds, local churches, the Mungindi Town Hall and machinery sheds, to the most beautiful garden settings and on the banks of the Barwon River. Come and make music with us in Mungindi on the October long weekend 2005. This will be music-making at its friendliest.

From our patron Don Burrows...
 In my opinion there is nothing more wonderful than community music-making. It is so fresh and alive. I am thrilled and excited to be the patron of the Mungindi Music Festival.
