Shakespeare on the River Festival

The Annual Shakespeare Festival is held in the small community of Stratford upon Avon located in the Gippsland region in Victoria, Australia and runs each April/May. The Festival has created an enduring Arts legacy for Stratford that showcases community, professional development, theatre, and the broader Arts scene.

The Festival has grown to include over twenty different events being performed over a two-and-a-half week period. The people of Stratford, The Festival management team, the best artists from around the region, and guest Melbourne and Sydney based professional companies will take you on a culturally engaging journey back in time.
