Submission of entries delayed as we seek an alternative venue

The Hamilton Eisteddfod is working to secure an alternative venue for its 2021 competition, due to the closure of the Hamilton Performing Arts Centre (PAC) for roof replacement works.

Following our official announcement of the 2021 Hamilton Eisteddfod late last year, we were advised that our booking of the Hamilton PAC could not go ahead as planned in 2021. The Shire of Southern Grampians has arranged a schedule of works to replace the building’s roof at the time of our booking.

While we are deeply disappointed that the PAC won’t be able to host us as per our usual arrangements, our Committee is working hard to find an alternative venue for the 2021 Hamilton Eisteddfod.

Until we are confident in our arrangements, we have decided to delay opening entries to the competition.

The advertised ‘entries opening’ date of 25 January 2021 will be rescheduled when further information becomes available.

Please continue to explore the details of our 2021 Competition, but note that some arrangements are likely to change. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause, and we ask you to check our website regularly for updates.

After the cancellation of last year’s competition due to COVID-19, we hope very much that our cherished Eisteddfod can make its return in 2021.

Please stay tuned for more information.
