2017 Bingara Regional Australia Bank Orange Festival
30/06/2017 - 01/07/2017
This year’s annual Bingara Regional Australia Bank Orange Festival will have festival goers dancing in the street as the event takes on a “Happy Days” theme, celebrating the nostalgia and music of the 50’s and 60’s.
For over half a century the community of Bingara has celebrated its Orange Trees. Planted as a living memorial to Bingara’s fallen in World Wars I and II, the trees and the annual harvesting of the fruit by the local school children (the orange police) happens on only one day of the year.
The Festival which started in 1998 has now become an important part of Bingara’s Orange Tree Memorial tradition. This year’s festival is a must see for those who love rock n roll and the 50’s and 60s era, with screenings of Happy Days in the historic Roxy Theatre, retro stalls and fashion parade, car displays, rock n roll music, dance demonstrations and kids entertainment.
This year’s Orange Picking will take place on Friday 30th June with the festival the following day on Saturday 1st July.
