The The Festival Patron is Frank Ifield, and the current serving executive directors are Tony and Vikki Page, Len Knight and Pat Drummond. The Festival is held on the second weekend of every September. The final and major concert of the Festival is held at Fagan Park in Galston on the northern rural fringe of Sydney, the state Capitol of New South Wales, Australia. All funds raised go to promote the activities of Galston Rotary Club.

The 2000 event raised substantial monies for the Cancer Patients Assistants Fund and associated charities causes and was a wonderful event with an attendance of about 7000 people at The Sunday Main Concerts
