Have you started putting your look together yet? The Fashions of the Festival Parade is your chance to strut your ABBA style down Trundle’s main street.
Thousands of dancers are expected to descend on Trundle this May as the 2026 Trundle ABBA Festival attempts to turn the town’s famous main street into one giant disco dancefloor.
As part of the festivities on 2 May, organisers are inviting festival-goers of all ages and abilities to take part in a World Record Dance Competition, performing choreographed moves to the chorus of Dancing Queen and Waterloo.
You don’t need to be a professional dancer, “If you can clap, sway or smile, you’re in,” organisers say.
An official choreography video has been released on the Festival facebook page, featuring simple, easy-to-follow moves designed so everyone can participate. Festivalgoers are encouraged to practise at home with family and friends before gathering on the widest main street in NSW for what promises to be a glittering, unforgettable moment.
The festival will also feature International tribute act ABBASBACK®, Central West bands Handpicked, Dirty Dark Horses and Easy Goin’, A live singing final – top 3 finalists perform live on the main stage, ABBAthemed vow renewals, A fashion parade with prizes for best dressedFood vendors, drinks and family-friendly fun.
Dedicated shuttle buses will operate from Parkes (Cooke Park) and Forbes (Harold Street, Victoria Park opposite Forbes Town Hall). Shuttle tickets are return fares, $30 per person.
Organisers encourage festival lovers to make their arrangements early and prepare to sparkle. Tickets and bus bookings are available online now. https://trundleabbafestival.123tix.com.au/events
