Art in the Park

A section of Machattie Park comes alive during the Bathurst Winter Festival and is a special place for people to wander through and have an experience like no other. The park is alive with trees washed in colour, portals, soundscapes and hidden gems. People are encouraged to walk the festoon lined pathways and discover the magic in Machattie Park by day and by night.

Art in the Park celebrates artistic and cultural diversity with sculptures by local artists standing, hanging, and hidden throughout the park.

2024 is the third year of a multi-year plan to showcase public artworks by regional artists at the Festival, and follows a strong tradition of showcasing the work of regional artists as part of the Bathurst Winter Festival.
