The ever popular Thirlmere Festival of Steam, NSW's premier steam event, is an extravaganza of activity, entertainment, amusement rides, fun, food, fabulous market stalls and, of course, steam!

Started in 1988, the event on the 1st Sunday in March each year has been growing ever since.

Situated in the heart of Wollondilly, just over an hour’s drive from the Sydney CBD and 45 minutes from Wollongong, the country town of Thirlmere is an ideal place for a family day out.

Well known for its railway museum (Trainworks), train buffs can wander around and explore the historic trains, carriages and educational displays.
