Celebrating community spirit
We are excited to again welcome ABC Gardening Australia host and crowd favourite Costa Georgiadis to Latrobe City. On the Sunday, families will be able to enjoy a live performance from Scrapboy and Costa the Gnome.
To recognise Remembrance Day, a minute silence and reflection will occur at 11am, with the day commemorated through a range of children's activities and artwork displays featuring red poppies. The garden will be illuminated at night on Saturday and Sunday as part of the light installation supported by AGL Loy Yang.
