Frost and Fire

Forbes Ski Dam

Embark on a warming winter adventure at Forbes' annual Frost and Fire event, nestled in the heart of Central West NSW. Cosy up by toasty fire buckets, indulge in hearty treats from food trucks, and savour boutique brews while being serenaded by internationally recognised Australian music acts on the main stage. The excitement doesn't stop there! Immerse yourself in live entertainment, including Wiradjuri cultural performances and the stunning spectacle of the Frost and Fire effigy bonfires. Frost and Fire is an all-age event. Children will find endless entertainment options, including a silent disco, face painting and roving entertainment. As the night builds toward its peak, a spectacular fire show will light up the stage, introducing the main headliner of the night – Diesel. Enjoy the event worry-free with complimentary shuttle buses running throughout the night, along with free and convenient accessible parking and disabled access for everyone to be part of the magic. Frost and Fire invites guests to unwind over the weekend, offering unique experiences that celebrate the winter solstice.
