Founded in Western Sydney 23 years ago, the festival re-emerged in June in Darling Harbour after a three-year gap caused by Covid.
Children’s Festival Organisation President Thuat Nguyen AM is inviting schools and youth groups to take part in the upcoming event.
“Our new venue in Abel Reserve, Revesby, next to the station, will open up this festival to many more families who live in that corner of the west to enjoy a spectacular Children’s Parade featuring beautiful traditional costumes and highly entertaining performances by children from various cultural backgrounds, along with a dozen or so interesting outdoor games and enjoyable food,” he said.
“The Children’s Festival is a showcase of how Australia is the most successful multicultural country on earth where youth of all backgrounds grow up as citizens of the world.”
Children aged 14 years and under are invited to enter in the Poster Design Competition with the theme ‘Caring for the environment is everyone’s responsibility’.
Full details on the competition as well as expressions of interest for Stage Performance and the Costume Parade, Stall Hire and nominations for the Children’s Festival Excellence Award are available at childrensfestival.org.au.
Children Festival bigger than ever
CHILDREN representing communities from all over the world will offer a feast of entertainment when the Canterbury Bankstown Children’s Festival returns to Revesby on September 11.
