The alcohol-free, family-friendly celebration will showcase food trucks and vendors serving up a diverse range of cuisines from Indian dishes to doughnuts, alongside the traditional Tongala Primary School barbecue.
At the time of printing What’s On, the fantastic music line-up for the 2025 Eats and Beats was yet to be announced, but if 2024 is anything to go by, expect artists again with the calibre of Grim Fawkner, Jessica Lorraine, with special guest Toby Brooks.
There are lots of kids’ activities, face painting, all the old-school games, bubbles, and other entertainment options to keep the kids engaged, located near the music, so that dads can stand in the shade, eating an ice-cream, and keep an eye on the kids.
A key enhancement to this year’s festivities is the newly constructed access ramp at the soundshell, following community feedback to Campaspe Shire Council.
The ramp means that there are now no limits as to who we can be part of the event, allowing the music at the soundshell.
The event, backed by Community Bank Tongala and Mathoura, and Campaspe Shire Council, will feature popular food vendors including Harry-Os, the Port Ice Creamery and a smoothie truck.
Local eateries will join the celebration, with nearby cafes providing coffee and hot food options.
People are encouraged to bring their picnic blankets and kick back on the grass at the Tongala Soundshell and shire lawns.
