Enjoy a family-friendly day of markets, live music, food stalls, and activities for all ages and interests.

There will be plenty of fun for the kids including faceprinting, jumping castle, “roaming reptiles” and nature-inspired activities.

For those looking to learn more about nature, the day will feature guided walks, talks and workshops on conservation, native plant gardening and wildlife.

Visitors can also explore the Centre’s grounds and walking trails at their leisure or simply relax with a picnic or lunch at the cafe.

“Spring is one of the best times of year to visit the Hunter Wetlands Centre,” said the Centre’s General Manager, James Wilson.

“The wetlands are bursting with life and our Spring Festival open day is a chance for the whole community to come, celebrate the season and discover more about the work we do here and what makes the Hunter Wetlands Centre such a special part of our community.”

The Hunter Wetlands Centre’s Spring Festival runs from 10am-2pm on Sunday 28 September at 1 Wetlands Place, Shortland.
