[REMOVED] Boorowa Irish Woolfest

Boorowa is world-renowned for its fine Merino wool. Creating a Wool Week event in the late 1990s seemed like a great way to showcase the beautiful wool from the region. A whole week was dedicated to this event with wool shows, wool workshops, shearing displays, and much more all around the town. After a couple of years, it was decided that to make it a truly spectacular event the community would condense it to a one-day festival when the street would be closed to traffic. This gave it more impact with all festivities located up and down the main street. Thereby was born the Woolfest. A great day out for all the family, lots of food and entertainment.
