Forbes Frost And Fire This Saturday

June 16, 2023 By Roxane Manley

Sneaky Sound System will be headlining this years Frost and Fire event.

Forbes Ski Dam has closed to the general public as preparations ramp up for this Saturday’s Frost and Fire winter solstice celebration.

Loads of wood are being delivered, the finishing touches are being put on the Ski Dam site, food and an exciting entertainment program is organised – all that is left now is for ticketholders to arrive, put their feet up and celebrate the long nights of winter with family and friends.

Frost and Fire boasts an impressive entertainment bill, starting with the talents of Grenfell musician Belinda Day and Forbes musical royalty Cler, Em and Jo. Indie sensation Birdee will take to the stage ahead of nationally renowned Sneaky Sound System.

Sydney Fire Dancers, Ice Queen and cultural performers Dyagang Boys Koori Dance Group will wow their audiences – and who could forget the dramatic lighting of the Frost and Fire effigy.

What has fast become one of Forbes’ masthead events, Frost and Fire is about celebrating the change in season at an affordable family friendly event. Tickets are $15 per adult with children under 18 free.

Secure your Frost and Fire tickets through 123tix.com.au. Parking at the event has sold out, so please be aware that buses will run between the Ski Dam and Town Hall and Renfree Street every 20 minutes for the duration of the event.

First fires will be lit at 4pm, and gates close at 10pm – Pack a picnic rug or chair.
