Ashburton celebrates the last weekend in summer festival

The festival is a great family day out for everyone.

The Ashburton Community “Last Weekend in Summer” Festival is on Sunday 23 February 2020.

The festival has been running for over 20 years and is a uniquely Ashburton event that celebrates the fabulous shopping strip and the abundance of community groups that are a huge part of Ashburton.

The event attracts approximately 15,000 people throughout the day with festival goers entertained with an array of roving performers, rides, amusements, a live stage with their very own Ashburton Idol, interactive activities and much more.

Ashburton Traders will have stalls selling different food, lots of sale items and special offers for the day and they will be a number of community groups with stalls offering unique items.

The festival is a great day out for families who come to enjoy good food, great entertainment, unique local products and a truly laid-back day with great community feel.

The City of Boroondara generously support the event contributing nearly $30,000 in sponsorship.

The Ashbuton Festival wouldn’t be possible without other business sponsors onboard including the Ashburton Community Bendigo Bank and Buxton’s Ashburton.

The festival runs from 11am-4pm in High Street, Ashburton, with a beer garden and band after party until 7pm.
