Holcim have been a great supporter of the festival dating back to the very early days when they were known as Readymix. Without Holcim the festival may not even exist today, so when you are thinking of concrete, screenings, sand and asphalt, contact the crew at Holcim.

The team at Foodworks have been a huge benefit since they took over the general store in Yackandandah with a great range of products and as well as supporting our Folk Festival, these guys also make contributions to many other not for profit groups within the community. A true community support organisation.

A huge thanks to the Yackandandah Newsagency for a donation to assist with the parade and town decoration. Not only do the owners help with this type of sponsorship, but they are both very much involved in community groups and projects in the town - more power to your elbow! Thanks James and Cassandra from all on the Festival committee.
