As we wind down for the Easter break, it’s fair to say much of Australia is in festival mode. April is overflowing with religious, cultural and sporting celebrations, offering something for everyone.

While Christians commemorate the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, those of Jewish faith are marking Passover and this month also heralds holy events among Hindu (Hanuman Jayanti), Baha’i (Ridvan) and Sikh (Vaisakhi) communities.

April is a solemn occasion for Australia as a whole, when we pay respects to fallen servicemen and women on Anzac Day.

On the cultural front, the month hosts new year celebrations for those of Nepalese, Bengali, Tamil, Sinhalese, Lao, Cambodian, Burmese, Thai and Assyrian backgrounds, while indigenous arts and culture take centre stage at the Jamba Nyinayi Festival at Coral Bay, WA, and the Parrtjima Festival of Light near Alice Springs.

Sports fans are spoilt for choice with the AFL’s Gather Round in Adelaide; Rockynats car event in Rockhampton and Northam Motor Sport Festival in WA; Tour de Brisbane bike ride; Cooly Classic Ocean Swim series on the Gold Coast; Rip Curl Pro surfing carnival at Bells Beach; the Stawell Gift footrace carnival, and marathons in Ballarat and Newcastle – to name just a few.

Just for laughs there’s the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and Sydney Comedy Festival, with other major events including the National Folk Festival and International Music Festival, both in Canberra, the Fremantle International Street Arts Festival and the Gold Coast Film Festival.

Musical options abound, from the Byron Bay Blues Fest to Sonder Festival in Tallarook, The Gum Ball in the Hunter Valley, Rabbits Eat Lettuce in Stonelands, St Albans Folk Festival (NSW) and Violet Town Music Festival.

The Sydney Royal Easter Show and Bendigo Easter Fair are two long-standing fixtures on the holiday calendar, and the 10-day SALT Festival of art, music and light on SA’s Eyre Peninsula also kicks off on Good Friday.

Among other quintessential and quirky April offerings are TrailGraze, celebrating north-west Tasmania’s culinary delights; the Macedon Ranges Autumn Festival, where the season’s colour attracts thousands of visitors; and Cunnamulla’s spectacular Outback River Lights Festival.

It’s always a pleasure to see the breadth of activities occurring in our cities and regions, thanks in no small part to the municipalities that provide the facilities, the organisations who dare to dream big, and the staff and volunteers who help make them happen.

Happy Easter, Happy April.
