Update at 8pm Saturday 29/3/25 - We are now fully subscribed for the 2025 Festival and both ‘Sign Up’ and 'Sign Up for the Waitlist' are now closed.
1) Thanks for your interest, we have had such a wonderful response to this year's festival. We apologise for any disappointment and hope that you will follow and support the festival online later in the year.
2) Our Waitlist is now also full! The 'Sign Up' form remains available to fill in for volunteers who have been contacted directly in regard to a 'Waitlist' spot becoming available.
3) For all other Sheep Fest enquiries please email us directly at hello@nrsheepfestival.com
With 2017's festival proving a massive success we're now getting preparations underway for our 2018 festival. Dates for this year are the 29th July-10th August. We are well underway with writing a schedule and hope to have it ready within a few weeks. Volunteer places will be available in due course and we'll keep you posted with news on the website and over the Sheep Festival's social media accounts.
