2021 Pittwater Bluegrass and Old Time Retreat
The Pittwater Bluegrass and Old-Time Retreat will be held on 9-11th July 2021 at the Pittwater Eco YHA. The setting is the breath-taking location of Morning Bay, across the water from Church Point (behind Scotland Island).
There is accommodation for 32 enthusiastic pickers, a wrap around verandah, camp fires, home cooked meals and all around good times!
BYO beer and wine only - please respect that spirits and fortified wines are not permitted at Pittwater YHA .

The YHA is a 20 minute ferry ride from Church Point and an additional 20 minute walk from Halls Wharf, so wear good walking shoes and pack light! Lunch, dinner, tea and coffee will be provided. Please bring your own breakfast. There are fridges also - no need for ice and eskys.
Linen and Towels are available for hire from the YHA for $7 per person. You can also bring your own linen if you prefer. Most beds are single beds but there are some doubles too. Please check your bedding arrangements with us closer to the time.
NB: We will try to have a welcome party at Halls wharf, but it's a good idea to bring a torch for the walk up, especially if you are going to arrive late.
There is parking a short walk from the ferry wharf so arrive in good time to find a free park for the weekend (Suggested parking spots are Eastview Rd and up past the ferry wharf on McCarrs Creek Rd)- try and carpool if you can!
