For the last 3 decades, we have worked to foster and encourage young people in the Hastings area in their chosen field of the performing arts. DANCE: The Port Macquarie and District Dance Eisteddfod has thrived over 30 years during the September school holidays and grown into one of the state's premier regional dance eisteddfods. DRAMA The Port Macquarie Speech and Drama Eisteddfod is a volunteer-run community event that aims to provide a platform for students to showcase their reading, writing, and dramatic talents. We aim to make public speaking and performing engaging and enjoyable. The Eisteddfod is an inclusive and supportive environment, with plenty of prizes and happy faces!
