New England Bach Festival

The New England Bach Festival is a biennial festival in Armidale, NSW, dedicated to the great J S Bach, his family, contemporaries and people he has influenced.

Australia's only Bach Festival, NEBF was founded in 2003 and brings together local and guest musicians in the heart of the New England Region. Across three days of concerts, workshops, and community events, audiences are invited to experience the brilliance, joy, and depth of Bach's music, and its continuing power to inspire.

Held in the beautiful regional city of Armidale, the festival brings the community together in a unique spirit of music-making, hospitality, and discovery. Audiences can enjoy concerts in historic churches, contemporary venues, and intimate chamber settings—all surrounded by the autumn colours of New England.
