Queensland Folk Federation stage the Woodford Folk Festival [WFF] at Woodford annually over Christmas – New Year. In conjunction with Epic Cycles, Woodford Folk Festival encourage sustainable transport attendees by providing a car-free campground for people who choose to arrive at the festival by bicycle, by foot, or by public transport. 

The  ‘sustainable transport camp-ground’ [STC] has only a small ecological footprint – a small tree-shaded space to co-locate many small tents, creating a compact communal meeting place, with end-of-trip and common room facilities within a marquee comprising

·        Bicycle storage racking, and floor mounted tyre-pump;

·        Kitchen, cooking, dining, lounge, discussion area; and

·        Temporary tent erection/demolition area, and a clothes drying area during inclement weather.. 

The basic home comforts of eskies, meal preparation/dining tables, and chairs, dish wash-up facilities and a potable water supply are provided for a comfortable well-equipped campsite – the STC! 

WFF deserves encouragement and support in providing a cyclist-friendly festival.   

Centenary Bikeways Group members attend WFF and advocate the further development and publicity of the STC to encourage more WFF attendance in a ‘sustainable’ manner.
