Katoomba has a lively music scene. Check out Baroque and the Clarendon venues for a fantastic line up of International and local acts. The music, restaurant and coffee culture are alive and thriving here. There are many cultural festivals throughout the year as well. Our Winter Magic Festival in June is one event not to be missed.

Friday night at the Family Hotel has a great quiz night with cash prizes and we often have a group from the Backpackers going down each week to take their cash.

Gearins Hotel is great Live music venue in Katoomba. Saturday nights sometimes have a $10-$15 cover charge but as Flying Fox guests this is often waivered.

What is Winter Magic?
The Winter Solstice has been celebrated by civilisations ancient and new over millennia. Often concealed beneath myth, elaborate artifice and tradition, at its core it is a physical event.

It marks the commencement of winter and the journey back towards warmth and the promise of Spring. It is a moment of renewal and promise. For the the mountains it has a particular significance when Katoomba, is handed back to the community. A time when artists and buskers, dancers and drummers, singers and snake handlers, jugglers and gymnasts, musicians and mass choirs take over the town.
