Melbourne Highland Games & Celtic Festival
David HODGETT (Croydon) (12:56): Today I want to speak on the success of the Melbourne Highland Games & Celtic Festival, which I had the privilege to be part of on Sunday, 23 March. It was a terrific event held in Croydon at Eastfield Park with people travelling from near and far, including international locations, to attend the event. The festival showcased a range of highland and Irish dancing, pipe band competitions, a range of musical performances in the folk music tent, displays and information on the clans. The highlight of the day was the hosting of the International Heavy Games Championships for the first time in Australia. A huge thankyou to the organisers and volunteers that ensured such a successful event and brought international exposure to Croydon.
