ABOUT
Battiss Arts Festival – a Weekend of Pure Vibes!
Get ready, Somerset East – the town is about to light up with art, music, and a whole lot of fun!
Friday Night – Fook Ferries go on a Neon Safari
Your ticket gets you a spot on the legendary Fook Ferry – a hop-on, hop-off bus turned neon safari!
Tour through town, sip something cold, and soak up the wild Friday night energy as Somerset East transforms into a glowing playground.
Saturday Day – Art exhibitions, workshops and market stalls
Dress up silly for an early morning parkrun, join the Unicorn parade as it takes you to the arts & crafts market.
See Tony Pietersen's beautiful art or learn a new skill at one of the workshops.
Saturday Night – Magé & Friends in Concert
When the sun sets on Saturday, the music rises! Folk-soul powerhouse Magé takes the stage with a line-up of amazing local artists. Think laid-back grooves, heartfelt lyrics, and a starry night sky – the perfect festival soundtrack.
Sunday – Museum open for guided tours
Book a tour with the Queen of Fook - Ros Turner and learn all about Battiss' art.
Tony Pietersen will do a charcoal portrait of our raffle winner.
- It’s art, music, adventure, and a little bit of mischief – all wrapped into one unforgettable weekend.
