All the old favourites plus a few new events will feature in the free week-long children’s festival running from May 15-21.
Festival artistic director Ann Lehmann said with more than 50 events, KidsFest is the largest community run free week-long festival for children, their families and carers in NSW.
Two cooking activities are new for 2016, with the ninth festival edition also including launching the Paint Shellharbour Red mascot.
‘’The 2016 festival theme is Belonging,’’ Ms Lehmann said. ‘’There’s an action packed program that gets kids and their families out in nature, creating, playing and making new friends with hundreds of free activities at 50 festival events across Shellharbour City.’’
The popular Grandparents Picnic at Illawarra Light Railway Museum kicks off the festival on May 15. Visit www.kidsfestshellharbour.com.au for full program.
