Kalbar Sunflower Festival

The annual Sunflower Festival in Kalbar features sunrise yoga in the sunflowers, wanders through the sunflower fields, children’s sunflower art classes, sunflower cooking classes and in the evening, a spectacular Sunset Dinner in the sunflowers. This extraordinary celebration of happiness was actually born of the drought - farmers Russell and Jenny Jenner pivoted from lucerne to sunflowers in 2021 because of water scarcity, then, with 200,000 glorious sunflowers blooming, they decided to share the joy. The program releases in mid-February, so stay tuned as tickets will sell fast! More at kalbarsunflowers.com.au
