Hall markets are on, too, being the first Sunday of the month. I imagine quite a few will be doing Hall and then the Pumpkins, possibly getting lost trying to go the back way (Gundaroo Rd, Sutton Rd, Marked Tree Rd, fall in Lake George…)

Pumpkin festival 🙂

Care to add some detail for those not in the know?

Is that the Collector Pumpkin Festival? I figured it must be on soon. Worth going to, they’ve run it for a few years now and it gets bigger and better every year.

thanks for picking that one up for me

Just listening to the wonderful round-up of regional events on ABC 666 radio (AM) and apparently there are events on for the weekend of some sort. There’s a pumpkin ball on tonight, so I guess check local guides (or in this case, the link) for more details.

Just listening to amazing details of an incredible day of Dutch goings-on……. damn, missed the day as the news gazumped the back-announce.

And the embassy is closed today for the (Nederland) Queen’s Birthday but the celebrations are on at the Royal Dutch Embassy this Sunday 1 May.

Food, music, crazy Dutch bas…. no, crazy Dutch games and much more.

http://www.netherlands.org.au/Dutch_Missions/Embassy_in_Canberra for location. Scant details here.

Thanks, Evan. I knew it was on this weekend but the link’s grand. AND the day. I had some idea it was all weekend.

For those not heading out of town, Salacious Sundays is on Sunday afternoon in Downer. Live, original music in an uber-relaxed setting. More here: http://canberramusiciansclub.org.au/html/events.html

The Canberra Tour cycling stage race is on over the weekend: http://canberratour.org.au/
If you are interested in road bike racing come out and have a look.
If you are thinking of driving anywhere near Stromlo, Uriarra, Cotter, Tidbinbilla or Tharwa over the weekend be ready for some short delays as 300-odd riders in various groups pass through. Please be considerate 🙂
