The Boambee East Community Centre is inviting the community to come together and warm their hearts on the coldest day of the year at the Winter Solstice Family Festival.
Now a cherished annual tradition, the Winter Solstice Family Festival promises to be a joyful and magical celebration for all ages. The event marks the shortest day and longest night of the year, bringing light, laughter and a touch of old-world charm to the heart of the community.
Expect classic games like sack races, beanbag tosses, and egg-and-spoon relays—fun for kids and grown-ups alike. Children will be thrilled by the jumping castle, face painting, and a reptile display, while music lovers can soak up performances by live musicians, a pipe band, drummers, and dancers throughout the day. The festival also features a silent disco, sensory space, community stalls, food stalls, and appearances from emergency services, making it a safe and inclusive celebration for everyone.
As twilight falls, the energy will rise with fire twirlers, a magical lantern parade, and a spectacular bonfire to light up the night and warm the soul.
