Multicultural Festival in Bungendore and Queanbeyan this year

Published on 10 January 2023

Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council is working with the Queanbeyan Multicultural Centre to host a celebration of culture in Bungendore for the first time, thanks to a Reconnecting Regional NSW grant.

Known for its culturally packed program featuring live performances, community activities, international cuisine and unique stalls, the Queanbeyan Multicultural Festival has grown year-on-year.

‘We are excited to be holding two events this year to celebrate our vibrant multicultural community,’ said Mayor Kenrick Winchester.

‘The Queanbeyan festival is one of our most popular events. Hopefully its reputation as a great family event will also attract people from around the region and from all backgrounds to the new event in Bungendore.’

The Bungendore Multicultural Festival will be held on 5 February 2023 and Queanbeyan Multicultural Festival will be held on 5 March 2023.

‘Bungendore has a really tight-knit community and our events team is working closely with local groups out there to make this event a winner,’ shared Kenrick.

Entertainers, stallholders and other volunteers can apply to be part of both the Queanbeyan and Bungendore events on our website.

More information will be available closer to each event.
