Festival of Outback Skies

Hughenden Showgrounds and Hughenden Recreational Lake

The outback skies are like no other, with colours diverse as a paint palette and presents a new tapestry in the sky each day. Inspired by nature's creativity, the Festival of the Outback Skies offers a range of immersive and creative experiences with art and makers workshops, art installations, and cooking demonstrations. Live music, dancing, rodeo action, and a themed Dinner Under the Stars, there is something for everyone's tastes.
