As an interactive festival, Woodfest provides many fun things for all the family. This festival gives a sense of the past, with many crafts men and women carrying out traditional crafts and skills. The Woodfest is all about wood, and what can be achieved with it. You’ll see beautiful, fascinating and functional art, sculptures, objects, buildings and more.

The Woodfest demonstrates the latest high tech forest equipment by working professionals. There are seven different event arenas, with displays on throughout the day, and over 150 outside stands of demonstrations and trade. There are also six main marquees full of interesting and unique goods produced in the country.
