Childers Festival is a celebration of the people and heritage of Childers and the only festival that closes the Bruce Highway!
Over four days, on the last weekend in July each year, Childers is transformed into an action-packed entertainment hub, concluding with Sunday's famous market day, which regularly sees nearly 40,000 people flock to the small town for celebrity artists and live music from every genre and decade.
The incredible markets feature a highway filled with over 300 stallholders where you can pick up vintage treasures, sample local produce and admire hand-made gems and local arts and craft. Those young and young at heart will also be mesmerised by dance, culture, street performers and carnival rides.

Everyone can participate in Festival of Voices, from curious beginner to seasoned professional.
We bring people together. We bring joy to communities, and we unite people from all over Australia, in the middle of winter, through song, through voice, and through experience.
We are inclusive, diverse, sustainable and accessible. We are for everyone, and we champion our belief that singing is for everyone; from student to professional, from punter to performer, from secret shower soloist to karaoke enthusiast and beyond.
