The Oatlands Heritage & Bullock Festival is a much-loved celebration of Tasmania’s rural past, returning on the 9th and 10th of August 2025 for another weekend of history, heritage, and hands-on fun. Held in the heart of Oatlands, this free, family-friendly event brings the town to life with bullock teams, steam engines, artisan markets, heritage displays, live demonstrations, and plenty of good old-fashioned country spirit.

From colonial art exhibitions and wool handling competitions to stonemasonry, clay play and traditional bread baking, the festival blends old-world charm with interactive experiences. Highlights for 2025 include the Royal Society of Tasmania’s “Hidden Treasures” art exhibition and the much-anticipated street parade through the historic High Street. Whether you’re into history, crafts, food or just a weekend of unique experiences, this is a festival not to miss.
