Visit

Welcome to the Tamworth region, renowned for its laid-back lifestyle, incredible landscapes and generous hospitality.

You might know us as the Country Music Capital, home to Australia’s First City of Light, or the gateway to the New England. But that’s just the beginning.

It’s where rich heritage meets outdoor adventure, arts and culture complements luxury, and sport intersects action and fun.

It’s where the charm of towns like Barraba, Manilla and Nundle meets the bright lights of a regional city like Tamworth.

And it’s the destination for an experience that’ll stick with you long after you depart. So go on, what are you waiting for?

MONOPOLY Tamworth Edition

TASTE SPRING 🍸

The Pig and Tinder Box’s spring cocktail menu is on its way out!

Before it goes, try their “NSFW” (points if you know what that stands for 😉), a modern twist on the classic passionfruit martini. 

Made with vodka, passionfruit, and lime, it’s clarified and topped with a vanilla prosecco foam—utilizing cocktail techniques never before seen in our region. 

Book a table at the @thepigandtinderbox today.

It's warming up...

So we're huge fans of cooling down 🍦

We highly recommend adding a pit stop to @spiltmilkbartamworth while you're in the capital of country.

It's the perfect place to treat yourself when it's hot or making sure every camper is happy!

HORTON FALLS, BARRABA

If you’re an adventure seeker looking for a country escape, look no further than Horton Falls National Park near Barraba, NSW.

Your best chance to view the majestic falls is from spring through to autumn - when the weather is warmer and the river is flowing 💧 

We recommend taking the 100m stroll to the Horton Falls lookout to capture your perfect shot 📸
