Australia Day

This weekend we come together as a nation to celebrate Australia Day; the public holiday will be held on Monday.  There are many events being held across the Sunshine Coast to commemorate this day and bring us together as a community – from picnics, riding giant thongs in the surf and dunny races, through to backyard BBQs with family and friends, and maybe a game of cricket thrown in; there’s generally lots of laughter shared and memories made.

Lions Club Australia Day in the Park – Tickle Park Coolum, kicking off at 6:30am with a Lioness Breakfast in the Park then an All-Day BBQ from 9am and plenty of activities for all ages including a talent show, ice-cream eating concert, live music and citizen of the year awards.

Marcoola Rocks – free family festivities including live music, rides and BBQ by the sea at Marcoola Surf Club.
