Kyneton's Daffodil and Arts Festival is back again in 2019 running from 5 to 15 September 2019. Along with beautiful daffodils throughout the town and surrounding countryside, visitors can take in exhibitions, ferret racing, performances and the now established Kyneton Dog Dash; hilarious time trials for family pets large and small. Many local gardens open to visitors and the Spring Flower Show presents the signature blooms of the Festival.
