HEALESVILLE Heritage Festival and the Healesville 150 Parade Committee are calling for expressions of interest for the huge party on 7, 8 and 9 November.
Parade co-ordinator, Yolande Pickett, is calling on schools, community groups , businesses and individuals to start working on floats, walking, riding or wherever else your imagination takes you – to come up with a way to participate in the 150th Birthday Parade.
This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity will be an unforgettable experience for the participants, and the thousands expected to watch the procession down the Healesville main street.
Healesville Heritage Festival has many exhibits on show at the parade, steam engines, trucks and mobile heritage vehicles in all forms, so Yolande is encouraging community members to contact her to register interest to take part in this great event.
Contact Yolande at h150parade@outlook.com.au .
Meanwhile, Healesville Heritage Festival now has booking forms online to book a stall or exhibit at this great festival, which is now shaping as one of the biggest regional festivals in Victoria this year.
If you are a local food producer, winery, farm-gate producer, or vendor with market style products to sell, go to www.healesville-heritage-festival.com.au or send your registration of interest to info@healesville-heritage-festival.com as quick as you can, so you don’t miss out on participating in this amazing festival.
Healesville Heritage Festival is expecting thousands of regional and visitors from other areas to attend the two days of the festival on 8 and 9 November, and the festival will kick off on Friday 7 November, with the official community launch.
