Tamworth is a small city in New England, New South Wales, located almost at the mid-point of Sydney and Brisbane. Though it’s like any ordinary town in the country, Tamworth is certainly one of the most happening places in Australia. A music fest started here in the year 1972, they named it ‘Tamworth Country Music Festival’, This event alone molded the city into ‘Australia’s Music Capital’. The festival also ranks as the second biggest country music festival in the world. If you are heading for a road trip between Sydney and Brisbane, Tamworth is situated just at the sweet spot. But we have seen people especially re-routing their navigation through Tamworth just to click pictures of the heritage and attractions, like ‘The Big Golden Guitar’.
