DerbyFest

Free live music at the pumptrack
DerbyFest is a celebration of everything that makes Blue Derby special—a weekend where world-class mountain biking meets small-town charm, fun and unforgettable community spirit. Whether you're a mountain biker, a local, a family looking for a great day out, or simply passing through, DerbyFest has something for everyone. At the heart of the weekend is the Billycart Derby, where creativity, friendly rivalry and plenty of laughs take over the streets in to race billy carts like the good old days. The action continues with Enduro racing through Derby's renowned trail network, a community Fun Run from Branxholm to Derby, the much-loved Derby River Duck Race and a bustling Event Village at the pumptrack. As the sun goes down, the festival keeps rolling with live music, Black Stump DJ Sessions and a welcoming atmosphere that brings the whole community together. More than just a mountain bike festival, DerbyFest is a celebration of the people, places and experiences that have made Blue Derby one of Australia's most iconic adventure destinations. Come for the racing, stay for the atmosphere, and experience a weekend where the entire town comes alive.
