Griffith Spring Fest 2024: Celebrate Spring with Nature, Art, and Culture
The Griffith Spring Fest is back, running from 13 to 27 October 2024, and promises to be an unforgettable celebration of spring, creativity, and community spirit. Held annually in the heart of Griffith, NSW, this festival showcases the vibrant and multicultural character of the region through its stunning Citrus Sculptures, breathtaking Open Gardens, and a series of fun-filled events.
A highlight of the festival is the Citrus Sculptures, which celebrate their 27th anniversary this year. Over 50 colorful and creative sculptures, all crafted from thousands of oranges and lemons, will line Banna Avenue for two weeks. These unique works of art are not only a visual delight but also represent the rich agricultural heritage of the region. Visitors of all ages will enjoy strolling through the streets, admiring these intricate creations that transform everyday citrus fruits into something magical.

These tours are a great way to appreciate the hard work and passion that goes into each garden’s design and maintenance.
The festivities kick off with a lively Launch Party, where you can enjoy local food, entertainment, and a selection of Griffith’s finest wines and beers—all in the midst of the Citrus Sculptures.
