The committee of Eaglehawk Festivals aim to create an inclusive and immersive experience for the residents of Eaglehawk and abroad by presenting a diverse range of cultural and entertainment offerings that are organised by the community, for the community.

As well as presenting a wide range of contemporary arts, the festival will seek to retain a number of traditional aspects of the original Dahlia and Arts Festival. Honouring 50 years of active community engagement and successful events managed and run by the Eaglehawk Festivals team, formerly known as the Dahlia and Arts Festival.

Recognising past success will be critical as the festival grows into new territory and attracts new audiences.
