🌞 THE ALTLINE WEEKEND EDIT | BUNDABERG REGION
14–16 August 2026
Bundaberg wins the weekend this week.
Whether you’re after a free coastal festival, a garden wander, something glamorous and completely different, or a night at the theatre, there’s genuinely enough happening to build an entire Saturday around.
🎨 Moore Park Beach Arts Festival
📍 Moore Park Beach Community Centre & Oval, 32 Club Avenue

Spend the day by the coast with art exhibitions and awards, a huge market, Eat Street, live entertainment and activities for the whole family — then stay for fireworks to finish the evening.
This is one of those events that’s absolutely worth making a day of.
