Mareeba Shire Council will be hosting Great Australian Bites on Thursday, 25 January 2024 at the Mareeba International Club, 10 Vaughan St, Mareeba.
Great Australian Bites is a free event that celebrates, showcases and promotes Queensland produce, local culinary and musical talent in honour of Australia Day. Australia Day is about the ever-evolving story of our nation – our history, our lives, and most of all, our people.
In the Mareeba Shire, agriculture is our largest industry, and the Great Australian Bites event will be a celebration of the great produce of our region.
The event will commence at 4:30pm with food vans, a jumping castle, face painting and a badge maker available. A Welcome to Country and Flag Raising Ceremony will form part of the official event, with performances by Aurelle Brunjes, a local from Dimbulah, and her band, General Sherman, Mareeba’s newest rock band and the Mareeba State High School band.
Council will host a citizenship ceremony and an Australian Awards ceremony alongside the Great Australian Bites event. The ceremonies will commence at 6:30pm, inside the Mareeba International Club.
Great Australian Bites will conclude at 9pm and attendance to the event is free.
Great Australian Bites is presented by Mareeba Shire Council in partnership with the Queensland Government and the National Australia Day Council and proudly supported by HIT.
