The Dolly Parton Express

Western NSW and the Dolly Parton Festival

Music festivals have long been popular in New South Wales and the regional areas of the state are in on the act in a big way. While the iconic Tamworth Country Music Festival showcases the big names and celebrates new talent, the central west region is fast becoming famous for celebrating the singer-songwriter phenomenons of the 20th century.

This October take the opportunity to explore Western NSW aboard a privately chartered heritage railmotor. Settle back and relax as you take in the ever changing countryside as you travel on railway lines that rarely see passenger trains.

The big event of course is the Dolly Parton Festival at Narromine. Join in on the glitz and glamour that is the worlds shiniest and tiniest songbird who has been blessing us with her tunes for more than 60 years. See the best performers in the business singing her greatest hits, explore the market stalls and revel in everything that is Dolly!
