About Warren Chamber Music Festival | 1 - 4 May

Four spectacular world class concerts with the finest musicians from across the southern hemisphere.

The Warren Chamber Music Festival has grown to be a signature event for the region, attracting visitors from across New South Wales, and interstate. Our festival celebrates the heritage, hard work, and resilience that define rural life through transformative performances that inspire, empower and educate in iconic locations across the Warren Shire.

In 2025, the Warren Chamber Music Festival presents three totally unique and breathtaking concerts with the New Zealand String Quartet, Australia's most innovative Clarinet Quartet, the central west's very own SING Warren community choir, special guests Alexandra Partridge, Zoe Freisberg, Tom Higham and festival director Frances Evans.

The Friday evening event includes a World Premiere of a commissioned work for the festival by revered Australian composer Anne Cawrse. Plus, don't miss rural Australia's first immersive live and digital commemoration performance in the Warren Museum and Gallery, paying tribute to the sacrifice and service of men and women from the Warren Shire district, and more broadly, rural Australia.
