COFU Crew Partners
Caltowie COFU wouldn’t happen without local businesses' financial and in-kind support.
The hard truth is that the festival has received little to no government funding to date.
The support from these businesses allows us to keep ticket prices affordable so that everyone can join in on the fun.
Yes, these businesses could direct their money to a Mental Health organisation, but everyone involved, like us, sees the vision of bringing people together to talk, laugh, sing, dance, and delve into great food and craft brews beneficial for the well-being of the people not only in our local region but from all over the state.
So please join us in giving these businesses a big THANK YOU!
Caltowie COFU is brought to you by Homegrown Touring & Echo Road Audio.
