The winners list is officially in for the 2021 Gympie Eisteddfod.

The Pavilion was transformed into a hive of artistic achievement this week as the region’s popular youth Eisteddfod got underway despite having to jump a long list of Covid-19 hurdles.

Unfortunately, some competitors were forced out by the South East Queensland lockdown.

Organisers were forced to move the Eisteddfod to the Pavilion after the State Government commandeered the Civic Centre as a vaccination hub.

The competitors who were able to attend the event put in their best efforts for supremacy in their respective fields across disciplines including music, dance and theatre.
