Deni Ute Muster 2024 in New South Wales
An Australian festival celebrating the car culture
Dates: October 4-5, 2024
Not many people outside Australia and New Zealand know what ute is. It is short for coupé utility vehicles with a cargo tray behind the passenger compartment. It is a kind of pickup truck produced from the 1930s to 2017. Ute Master festivals gather ute owners for concerts, competitions, and other events in many regions of Australia. The Deniliquin Ute Muster, the largest event of this kind, is a two-day festival that features several live music concerts and ute driving competitions. There is also the GME Circle Work Championship, a bull ride, show, and shine arena. In its first year, the Deni Ute Master held the largest parade of utes in the world that was listed in the Guinness Book of Records.
Entertainment Program
Drawing in about 18,000 attendees each year. the Deni Ute Muster features a jam-packed program of entertainment and activities. Ute culture is Deniliquin's intrinsic part which is often called the Ute Capital of the World. It now celebrates all things Australian and offers free camping on the flattest plains on earth. Attendees have a chance to laugh their hearts out at the circus show, enjoy the performance of Matt Falloon Balloon Man, a puppet show, the junkyard action show, and many other entertaining showcases. Families might especially enjoy the carnival corner, featuring all kinds of attractions, including the classic Ferris Wheel.
