Ten Days In The Towers - We welcome you!
26 April To 6 May 2013
The 10 Days in The Towers Festival is an annual event that brings the
historic North Queensland town of Charters Towers to life in a very
unique way.
Staged during the last week of April and the first week of May each
year, 10 Days in The Towers is a celebration of many things. To the
fore is the sound of country music which can be heard daily in the
town’s many hotel bars and on the streets of the central business
district as the popular buskers entertain shoppers and passers-by.
But the 10 Days in The Towers is not only a country music festival –
it is so much more than that. Locals and visitors also enjoy line
dancing, bush poetry, talent quests and historic tours during the
period of the festival which also includes two country music festivals
– the All Australian Jamboree and the Charters Towers Country Music
Festival.
The reality that thousands of visitors gravitate to Charters Towers
for this unique annual festival is testament to its ongoing success.

What does Ten Days in the Towers mean to me -
Ten Days Is about showing off our wonderful town with lots of community events & tours happening, THEN THE BIG COUNTRY MUSIC FESTIVAL weekend to top it all off, & Catherine Britt (Tamworths Country music winner for 2013) is one of the Saturday Nights guest artists..... Jenny
Its the probably the best time of year to visit CT. So many activities on and around the town from the buskers, the bush poems and of course Country Music. I love Mayday weekend and especially now as a business owner loves all the tourist it brings....... Erin

Country music, markets, buskers and lots of traffic..... Christine
Music Fun Laughter and community Spirit....Andra
Ten days in the Towers is when a different kind of Aussie culture is on display. A time when we experience new sounds and words or are transported back to our childhood, the backs of our legs stuck to the vinyl seats of the old holden, choking on dust with the sound of Chad and Slim crackling out from the cassette player. Ten days to celebrate our heritage and our future...... Kylie
