Welcome to Marchfest 2009

Nelson, New Zealand - March 28th Midday-9pm

We had a great time - hope you did too !!

Set in the beautiful, traffic-free environment of Nelson's Founders Heritage Park, MarchFest is Nelson's hip harvest hop festival celebrating craft beers, regional wines, slow food and eclectic music.

MarchFest is completely weatherproof – all activity areas have the potential to be sheltered from sun, wind or rain. Cool stuff for kids and families too!

MarchFest is booking quality local, national and international acts – no bland and lifeless covers bands for this event. Wicked Draw will be headlining this year's MarchFest supported by The Aviators, Sarah Brown, Hobnail Boots Trio, Chimuka and Nancy Kerr and James Fagan with Kate Fagan.

MarchFest is geared towards people who make informed choices about their food, drink, musical taste and want to attend a family-friendly event, which is safe, fun and a bit different to the run-of-the-mill festival. An event for people who want to savour.. not just consume!
