Celebrate the Spirit of Victoria’s High Country
31 October - 8 November, 2025
Each spring, the Mansfield district comes alive with nine days of local legends, music, makers, horses, art, parades, markets, food, family fun and High Country magic (oh and fireworks). It's a celebration of everything we love about life here: our stories, our mountains, lakes, rivers and people.

A High Country legend
For over 40 years
Born from a love of the land and a knack for throwing a good party, the Mansfield High Country Festival was built to bring the community together and celebrate the unique stories, skills, creativity and spirit of the Victorian High Country.
42 years later, we tip our hat to the pastoral and alpine heritage that built this region, to the tales of "The Man from Snowy River", and to the volunteers, artists, riders, cooks, and characters who keep showing up to make this festival what it is.
From the torchlight parade and fireworks opening, the arts trail to the bush market and the country races, every event is a thread in a story we’re still writing, together.
