Teen and Adult Workshops

There will be lots for older children, teens and adults to do at festiValley - it's not just for the littlies. There are a varied selection of workshops lined up for you to hone your skills or to learn new ones. Some will be available to do all day, but others will be a case of "first in best dressed".

This week Brisbane Roar have agreed to come along to run soccer workshops, which will be a great opportunity! There will also be archery, fencing and circus skills. African drumming and Latin dancing will tap into musical talents while clay castles and tie dying will allow for creative pursuits. A biodynamic gardening workshop will help to bring out your green thumb. Be sure to run through the programme and get tickets for workshops you don't want to miss.
