WHAT’S ON…
WIRADJURI COUNTRY
SUMMER
THIS IS BIDGEE STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM
We’re summer lovin’ this season in our Wagga Wagga + Surrounds. There’s something on for every occasion including Christmas, New Years and Australia Day - so be sure to take note of them all. Grab your hat and head outdoors for strawberry picking, sporting events and outdoor movies. Prefer the indoors? We have plenty on offer for that too with cooking classes, local exhibitions and concerts. So dive in and get ready for the summer of a lifetime in Wagga Wagga + Surrounds.
