The Hawkesbury City Eisteddfod was founded 68 years ago and has grown in mass proportions as approx 7000 performers aged from 5-99 yrs participate.

From July to September the Hawkesbury City Eisteddfod conducts an eisteddfod with 2023 being the 71st Annual festival. Each year across the stage gaining confidence and experience in a friendly atmosphere and taking home a written critique from an expert in the field.

The categories include Vocal, Pianoforte, Instrumental, Speech, Dance, Dance Troupes, and School events.  School events are well supported by Bands/Ensembles, Dance groups, Choral, and Verse Speaking choirs.

The venue is the Windsor Function Centre.

We are grateful to the many sponsors, in particular the Hawkesbury City Council who generously support the eisteddfod by providing the venue.
