Gympie's iconic Goldrush Festival returns from 3rd - 17th October 2026, and we invite

This is your opportunity to showcase your organisation, celebrate your community, and
contribute to a region-wide event that brings people together.

We welcome participation of all kinds, including:

• Hosting an event in your local area
• Promoting your organisation, town, or community group
• Sporting clubs showcasing their activities
• Holding open days or fundraising events
• Entering a float in the Goldrush Parade
• Marching in the parade with your group
• Operating a food stall during festival events
• Running activities or competitions
• Busking or providing live entertainment
• Contributing creative ideas — all suggestions are welcome

No contribution is too big or too small—every effort helps make this festival a success.

The festival committee is actively planning a diverse program of events and activities. We are
also seeking enthusiastic volunteers and contributors to assist with:

• Event coordination
• Parade organisation
• Concert and entertainment support

• General event operations

If you'd like to be involved behind the scenes, we would love to hear from you.

Sponsorship packages are available for businesses and organisations wishing to support the
festival financially while gaining valuable community exposure.
