    Submission No 420 INQUIRY INTO THE MUSIC AND ARTS ECONOMY IN NEW SOUTH WALES Organisation: Illawarra Folk Festival Date Received: 2 July 2018 Legislative Council The Music and Arts Economy in NSW Introducing the Illawarra Folk Club, presenters of Folk Music in the Illawarra The Illawarra Folk Club Inc was established in 1979 as a not for profit organisation and has over this time run fortnightly Folk Music concerts in central Wollongong and throughout the Illawarra. We have run 33 annual Folk Festivals since 1986, initially at Jamberoo which we outgrew. The current version of the Illawarra Folk Festival attracts an aggregate 10,000 people with up to 12 stages over 4 days. It runs in January every year at the Bulli Raceway GBOTA site, the adjoining Bulli Showground and the Bulli Grevillia Park. This Festival attracts about 1500 on site campers and 400 volunteers giving a total of 5,000 hours of free help. The event puts $1.5 million into the local economy. We believe that this festival is the largest volunteer run festival in Australia In addition to the Illawarra Folk Festival we ran for a number of years a small one day festival on the Jamberoo to Robertson Road and since 2012 we also have run the smaller Folk by the Sea Festival at the Kiama Showground and Church Point precinct of Kiama. This event attracts 2,000 people over the 3 days including about 150 campers. Both events include a festival licensed bar. Both our festivals are wrist band entry only, for a day or for the entire festival.

Soon the South Coast and West Camden Co-op opened its own selling floors in Sussex Street, Sydney. Illawarra and Shoalhaven farmers immediately withdrew their consignments from ‘the system’ and sent their produce instead to the fledgling co-operative. On Mondays and Thursdays steamers arrived from Wollongong, Kiama and Shoalhaven. Carrier after carrier had to be engaged to convey the butter, bacon and cheese sent from the South Coast to the Co-op’s floor while many agents had nothing else to do but stand outside their doors and watch their business disappear, their carts returned empty from the wharf. The oC -op finished business on the evening of its opening day with all its consignments sold at a very good price.

  • Wollongong Major Events Strategy 2016-2020
    WOLLONGONG MAJOR EVENTS STRATEGY 2016-2020 Prepared by Destination Wollongong In consultation with Wollongong City Council EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Major events acquisition is a core pillar in driving the visitor economy, which is an important growth enabler for a city in transition. The trend within tourism of taking “short breaks” works to Wollongong’s advantage, given its proximity to Sydney. Events are immediate and economic, providing instant return and opportunities for unskilled labour. Furthermore, they provide a mechanism for attracting visitors without the need for expensive infrastructure. Ideally, Wollongong should be competing with regions of similar size and proximity for major events – Geelong, Sunshine Coast and Newcastle – but, realistically, lacks the funding and leverage to do so. A snapshot of the 2012-15 Major Events Strategy revealed success in establishing a nimble business model, advocating changes to the events process, and engaging collaborative partners. Event acquisition saw a portfolio of 20-26 events created, the sports sector effectively mined, seed funding used to kick-start now sustainable initiatives, and signature events established. Considerations in preparing the for the 2016-2020 Major Events Strategy include Wollongong’s lack of a distinct destination brand within market, which should ideally take the form of a collaborative, multi- layered model that ultimately aligns with this and other relevant strategic documents. The mission is to increase visitation, enhance perceptions and engage the community by hosting major events that showcase Wollongong’s strengths. Key aims of the strategy are: (1) to achieve staged growth as a core pillar of the visitor economy; (2) deliver on reputational reward that complements Wollongong’s brand values; (3) align with the city’s strategic imperatives and product development aspirations; (4) secure staged investment in major events to rival comparable regional cities; and (5) demonstrate the most “user- friendly” application process of any Council in Australia.
