Here is the Schedule cooked up for 2019.
Once again we paid careful attention to the mass of feedback we received from previous BlokeFests and have tried to simply make things a little bit better and a little more stuff and with less rushing around on the Friday night, even more catered food with salad and stuff!
All timings were merely for guidance and subject to alteration until after they actually happen! We had a fun filled few days planned out and some great opportunity to learn great new songs, meet new folks and celebrate life through the medium of song, ale and good company. |
There is a possibility that blokes can start appearing from Thursday and stay overnight and then also stay over on the Sunday night. If you would like to do this then please email [email protected] when you order just so we have an idea of numbers.
As for the rest of the weekend, written pretty much on the back of a napkin, the official schedule looks something like this...
All subject to some filling in of details and tweaking.

As with all BlokeFest plans, this more a statement of intent rather than a cast in stone to the precise minute but at the very least should give you an idea when the next Workshop session is, when you next get fed, or when you can nip off for a crafty pint when the bar is slightly less busy.
Friday
The clan gathers again to hail each other heartily and sup ale and munch some suitable substantial sustenance at our leisure. We will then be invoked to our first Welcome Workshop to begin the singing. You will then be cajoled into taking part in some Pub Games to stop you drinking too quickly and no doubt some singing will break out in the pub but only for a bit until we all need to get our much needed beauty sleep. Pace yourself lads! |
Saturday
Traditionally there is a bit of a slow start as aching bones and sore heads are hauled from camp beds to gird their loins for a full day of singing Workshops. This year we will have the labour saving feature of "The BlokeFest Clubhouse Café Specials" for a brekie. Singing workshops in the Blokefest Big Tent. Catered food will also be provided at lunch and evening meal. |
Sunday
"The BlokeFest Clubhouse Café Specials" will return for breckie to help get everyone started. Despite anticipation of an even slower start, Sunday's gathering will seek to maintain the pace with a fifth Singing Workshop principally to re-cap what have learned over the last two days before dribbles out of our memories. Then comes a bit of midday sustenance followed by official photographs we conclude with Parting songs before a final dispersing. |
