EVENT INFORMATION:

The Isa Festival will be held this year over two nights, 10 and 11 August.

On Wednesday 11th August Council will host a Street Party in the CBD which includes a Street Parade at 6:00 pm.

Local and Visiting Stalls are invited to participate.

Please note the following:
- We try to accommodate everyone, however space is limited, therefore we can't guarantee a spot at the event/s
- The Free Concert is taking place in a sporting oval and we need to look after the field, therefore some larger, heavier vans/trailers/trucks won't be able to be accommodated at the Tuesday night event
