Now in its 123rd year, the Blackwood Woodchop and Easter Carnival offers a great family day out set against the gorgeous backdrop of the village of Blackwood.
The Carnival kicks off with the traditional street parade, followed by a woodchop and music, plus gumboot throwing, a pet show, a treasure hunt, kids’ novelty games and races, face-painting, tug-o-war, market stalls, delicious eats and licensed bars.
The Carnival features one of the oldest woodchopping competitions in Victoria and incredible music throughout the day, headlined by legendary Australian western-punk outfit, The Johnnys, who promise a 'rootin' tootin' good time'.
It all takes place at the beautiful Blackwood Recreation Reserve, “the prettiest sportsground in Victoria”!
Ticket price includes all activities, including woodchop and live music.
