Billed the Funtabulous Bunbury Kidsfest, a three day weekend for kids from age two to twelve is the product of community consultation for an iconic event for Bunbury several months ago. This was the idea which gained most support at the City sponsored think tank, and it has found support through the State Government Royalties for Regions program through Eventscorp’s Regional Events Scheme.
The festival features more than 95 workshops, shows and activities divided into eight zones within a marquee village.
Programs include cooking workshops, interactive Scitech shows, hands-on art and craft activities, sports clinics, a construction zone, animal displays, and an area specially designed for children under five.
The festival is intended to run from October 1 to 3, and it is unclear how the postponement of the public holiday on Monday October 3 will affect attendance at the event.
