2025 Festival Donors & Supporters

Donors

Festival donors enable Chris and Howard to deliver the vision of the festival.  These donations

  • Bring the highest quality artists from around the world to Bendigo
  • Help enrich the community, through a program that offers opportunity for local community groups to work with world class musicians.
  • Bring musical joy to the lives of over 800 local children in both primary and secondary school through the educational program.

If you would like to support the festival, all donations are tax deductable through the Australian Creative Fund.  Becoming a festival donor will also enable you access to private events with the artists throughout the year.  There are a number of ways that you can support and every little bit helps.
