Welcome to AESA which is made up of Eisteddfodau and Festivals from all over Australia

Together we make an Eisteddfod a better experience for those running them and for those participating in the events.

The Eisteddfod is held annually offering competitive and non-competitive sections for all types and styles of dance, vocal, instrumental, speech and drama. For several weeks each year, participants compete and perform, covering the full spectrum of the performing arts.

The artists benefit via competition, not only are their artistic skills improved, but also confidence, poise, commitment and self esteem, skills which they will later take into the community with them.
