Subject: Blue Mountains 'WHAT'S ON' - 22nd July 2026

WHAT'S ON in the greater Blue Mountains region


The Blue Mountains are open and ready to welcome you.


Up here, we love any excuse to celebrate. From bustling village markets and tempting food events to live music, theatre, art exhibitions and cultural festivals, there is always something happening along the ridgeline and into the valleys.


Families can dive into community fairs and school holiday activities, food lovers can follow their taste buds to local producers and artisan makers, and outdoor enthusiasts will find walks, tours and nature‑based experiences to fill their days. Whether you are chasing entertainment, creativity, adventure or simply a great day out, the Blue Mountains offers a warm, vibrant events scene in every season.


Remember, community and not‑for‑profit events are promoted free of charge.


Discover the very best of the Blue Mountains with Ask Roz Blue Mountains, your trusted partner in sustainable tourism.
