The Tamborine Mountain Scarecrow Festival returns for its 19th year, bringing a weekend of creativity, community and family fun to Tamborine Mountain.
Held on the last weekend in October, the festival combines the much-loved FREE Scarecrow Trail with a special Saturday festival celebration at Cauldron Distillery.
Follow the Scarecrow Trail around Tamborine Mountain and discover creative, colourful and quirky scarecrows made by local residents, businesses, schools and community groups. The trail is free for everyone to enjoy and runs from 9am–4pm Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
On Saturday, head to Cauldron Distillery for an afternoon of entertainment featuring live music from the Shenzo Gregorio Quartet featuring vocalist Melissa Western, The Good Ones and Haystack Mountain Hermits.
There will also be food vans, market stalls, Highland cows, pig racing, face painting, local performances, family entertainment and the Scarecrow Festival awards presentations.
Bring the family, explore Tamborine Mountain, support local businesses and enjoy one of the Mountain's favourite community traditions.
