Festival Launch Concert

See Ensemble Gombert perform live in Woodend this Saturday – and be the first to find out what is happening at the 20th Woodend Winter Arts Festival!

To celebrate the launch of the 2025 program, festival favourites, Ensemble Gombert will perform in the glorious acoustics of St Ambrose Church.

You are invited to join them, as they perform Choral Delights of Seven Centuries, featuring choral music from the 15th to the 21st century. This incredible concert showcases everything from Renaissance polyphony to modern Australian compositions.

In the spirit of good old-fashioned country hospitality, we’ll have some special local treats to give away to some lucky attendees – thanks to the generosity of local Woodend businesses. 

Don’t miss your chance to experience one of Australia’s finest chamber choirs live, in the heart of the beautiful Macedon Ranges.

Saturday's forecast is looking sublime! Take advantage of the beautiful weather and explore Woodend and the Macedon Ranges, where the stunning autumn colours are already beginning to shine.
