Mundubbera Blueberry Festival
Mundubbera Blueberry Festival
When: 21 - 22 October 2022
The small rural town of Mundubbera (pop. 1500) will come alive as people flock to visit the Festival and enjoy all the offerings of the naturally beautiful North Burnett region.
What has that got to do with blueberries? Well, Mundubbera is home to the largest covered blueberry farm in the southern hemisphere and that to us is worth celebrating! Mundubbera and the neighbouring towns of Gayndah and Eidsvold are prolific producers of citrus, mangoes, avocadoes, grapes, pecans, beef, pork, however the point of difference is – you guessed it – the blueberries!! October is when our blueberry harvest is in full swing and production at its peak.
Come along and delight your senses in all things blueberries!
