Well our event of the year is finally here – make sure you rug up and come along to Chillfest on Friday night and Frost and Fire on Saturday.
On Friday night – our family friendly Chillfest event is being held – all ice skating spots have been booked but there will still be two indoor movies – Elemental at 7pm and the Rise of the Guardians at 8.45pm.
There will be a blow up igloo and an outdoor DJ. There will be plenty of hot food choices and glow up products for sale.
Frost and Fire tickets are still available – $30 for adults and children free, for a night of live entertainment from fire dancers, a first nations dance group and of course so much of our home grown talent including international sensation Vera Blue.
This year it is absolutely one not to miss.
So much talent, Cameron Sharp will start the night as only he can, with classics that are sure to get you up and dancing, so make sure you get there at 4pm. Better still catch a bus from either Town Hall, the Renfree Street carpark or Apex Caravan Park.
Free buses are running all night to get you there and back.
Next up entertainment wise we have Em, Cler and Jo and Gracey Denham Jones, before Aria chart topper Raechel Whitchurch performs. As you all know Frost and Fire is all about fantastic live music, fire buckets and friends so do not miss out.
Tickets are still available at 123tix.
There are 12 food vendors, so plenty of options if you didn’t order a hamper ahead of the night and the effigies will be lit around 7.30pm. There will be fireworks at 8.30pm, so please make your pets are safe and comfortable at home.
So come early and find a spot near one of the 20 fire buckets, rug up and enjoy a really amazing night of live entertainment.
Talking events – make sure you save the date for the 2024 National BBQ Championships on Saturday 9 November and Sunday 10 November.
We know you will love it – we have made it even bigger and better than ever. There will now be two days of competition – grilling and a low and slow smoking event.
There will be a guest chef, entertainment and lots of stalls with some major cash prizes for competitors.
Until next week, God bless
