An abundant program of family-friendly events is arriving on Friday 8 and Saturday 9 November 2024 for the highly anticipated return of the International Rose Garden Festival Morwell.
This annual festival showcases the internationally recognised, award-winning rose garden, located in the heart of Morwell, while it’s in full bloom. The garden is maintained throughout the year by the Friends of the Rose Garden Volunteers who ensure it looks its best for this special occasion.
The main acts this year include global television stars Dirtgirl, Scrapboy and Costa the Garden Gnome, who will perform their grubby bucket show live. There will also be a nature themed Trivia Night hosted by the Dirtgirl World trio and the return of popular events such as the Cut Rose Competition and the AGL Loy Yang Night Light Installation.
The Festival will feature workshops, live music, market stalls, food trucks, roving performers, children’s activities, the famous Country Women’s Association scones, and more.
The Festival commences with a light show at 6.30pm on Friday night, followed by an 11am start on Saturday where locals and visitors alike can explore the rose gardens and stalls, or participate in free activities.
Visitors looking to attend any workshops are encouraged to book ahead to avoid missing out. Festival entry is free. For more information, head to the Festival website at https://irgfm.com.au/
