Who we are
The Ouyen Festivals Committee is a group of likeminded locals who are dedicated to providing our local area with opportunities to socialise, have fun and celebrate!
In a time where rural community ran events are dwindling, we endeavour to provide a range of events throughout the year targeting a wide range of locals and people from further away.
Our main event is the Mallee Root Festival which took place on Saturday September 28th 2024, on the banks of the Ouyen Lake. Our team is already busy planning our next event!
