Nati Frinj Festival
Biennially Melbourne Cup Long Weekend
The "Nati Frinj" Festival is a three day festival occuring on the November Melbourne Cup Weekend every two years. It is driven by the artistic endeavours of those who called Natimuk their home. The event features the incredibly successful Silo shows, Lake Shows, Rotunda events and the hugely popular and eccentric Hay and Thespian Mardigras Street Parade. Work from the Festival has toured to the Next Wave festival, the Commonwealth Games Cultural Program, The Regional Arts Australia Meeting Place Conference and the local companies and artists that show and develop their work tour through Australia, Asia, Europe and America. It has become known as the"artists art festival" of choice whereby many non Natimuk artists utilise the festival to develop their work while forming strong and enduring creative relationships with Natimuk artists. These connections are a valued part of the Festival and seen as very much informing the long term sustainability of the festival.
As a Cultural Tourism Product, it is hugely successfully drawing increasing the town's population from 500 to approx. 5000; most of whom came from Melbourne or Adelaide, with tents sprouting up everywhere and the Caravan and Arapiles campground being full.
