The Bright Autumn Festival is a celebration of autumn and harvest in Victoria’s Alpine High Country. The festival was first held in 1962 making it one of the oldest continuous festivals in the country. At the time, Bright was known as a winter destination and the Autumn Festival was an effort to attract visitors at a quiet period.
The Bright Autumn Festival is an initiative of the Bright and District Chamber of Commerce and is entirely run by volunteers.
The Bright Autumn Festival could not exist without the fantastic support of our sponsors. Please support them as they have supported this community event.
