The annual family friendly Lingalonga Festival is held under a canopy of beautiful trees at the picturesque Batchelor Oval. Enjoy markets, entertainment or join in the activities planned throughout the day. If you prefer a slower pace - sit under a shady tree and share a picnic with friends.

Kids will love the 'bug themed' free activities on offer. Join in the highly sort after traditional weaving workshops or try 'vertical' rock climbing. Be prepared to get wet with the giant waterslide, or bring along your bucket and spade and build the biggest sandcastle!

Don’t miss the blacksmith and his noisy haven of fire and creation. Watch him use a forge and create items the old fashioned way.

Art and sculpture exhibitions, a poets' breakfast, clowns and belly dancers - plenty for all.

There is so much happening - so stay the night and spend the rest of the long weekend swimming at Litchfield National Park. Plenty of accommodation choices ranging from camping, family accommodation to luxury retreats....

Live music throughout the day, with a special lineup after dark More Info

Smooth away the worries of the week and spend Saturday 31 July with US!
