Start prepping social butterflies; 2022 is going to be jam-packed! Pack your best swimsuit, sunscreen, hat and towel, get ready to soak up the warmth of summer on the banks of the glorious Murray River in the picturesque township of Tocumwal, NSW and let the Good Times roll on February 12 & 13, 2022!
They say there is a rainbow after every storm, and here at Good Times, we have a rainbow of Teskey proportions after a couple of stormy false starts! The event organisers are ecstatic to announce new dates of February 12 & 13, 2022. With not one but TWO Teskey’s. Josh Teskey and Ash Grunwald will be re-joining the Good Times lineup this Feb, as will Sam Teskey with his live band; fourth time’s a Teskey charm!
Cash Savage and The Last Drinks will bring the full formidable force of their infectious political rock to Toc, alongside the sublime sounds of Emma Donovan & The Putbacks.
Cinematic soul journeymen Surprise Chef, Floodlights with their catchy ‘80s alternative rock melded with ‘90s New Zealand jangle-pop, and blues singer/songwriter Benny Walker will join us, with many more to be announced.
On Saturday, the closure of Deniliquin St will transform Tocumwal’s main drag. Discover a prohibition-era Speakeasy Bar hidden in a heritage-listed building, have your palm read by a fortune teller in the Antiques Store, challenge yourself to a game of “relatively serious” pub backgammon, or simply enjoy the stellar live music program.
Soak up the summer sun this February as we take over the historic main street of Tocumwal with some of Australia’s best live blues, rock and soul musicians, great food and even better company.
Try your chances at a fairly serious pub backgammon tournament. Have your palm read by a fortune teller in the local antique store. Or just kick back with a G&T at the luxurious Archie Rose speakeasy bar. All entertainment is family friendly. 100% of funds raised will be donated to local community groups and charities.

Good Times Festival was created to reinvigorate community spirit in Tocumwal, which alongside several regional areas, has been hit hard due to the pandemic. The intention has always been to boost tourism and visitation to the picturesque township nestled along the Murray.
Good Times is a new event for the whole family that celebrates live music, art, food, workshops and local delights of this stunning village.
Good Times is brought to you by the team behind Strawberry Fields (which sold out in 60 minutes after announcing their new 2021 date). The team are thrilled to be supporting their hometown of Tocumwal by drawing visitors from Melbourne, regional VIC and NSW to support the regional tourism recovery and bolster local businesses after a challenging year in 2020.
Good Times has been made possible thanks to the Restart Investment to Sustain and Expand (RISE) Fund – an Australian Government initiative. All performances will be either free or donation-based, with proceeds going to the local community groups. So come along, give what you can, and have an old fashion GOOD TIME!
