Hurstbridge’s Annual Wattle Festival is on Sunday 27th August, 2023
Join us Sunday 27th August, 10am - 4pm, for a day of sensational fun and nostalgia as our village swells with pride and people. We have trees full of yellow pom poms decorated by our wonderful yarn bombers, masses of wattle trees flowering, and a visiting heritage steam train with all the wonderful noises, scents, and sights of yesteryear.
Loads more fun with pony rides, art exhibitions, and our infamous and cheeky Miss Wattle will be roaming the town entertaining us.
