On behalf of our councils, we are delighted to introduce you to the inaugural Upstream – Festival of Art + Culture.

Upstream is the product of both councils working together to host a significant event that spans both cities.

This is a festival of regional significance, a collaboration and connection of art and culture with local food and beverage.

We are thrilled to host a festival that is unique to the Border and has something for all ages. 

The festival is family-friendly, has lots of free activities and is accessible to all, creating experiences that people can share across generations.

Upstream gives everyone a chance to explore and experience opportunities featuring nationally acclaimed artists as well as putting a spotlight on some of our local talent.

With experiences happening across four days, alternating between the two cities, Upstream is a showcase of Albury-Wodonga and the region.

We welcome you to Albury-Wodonga and encourage you to explore beyond the festival and immerse yourself in the myriad of arts and culture experiences across our community.
