Seven Hills Festival

Overview

Sometimes, street parties occur for a specific reason, to mark a date or open — or farewell — part of a neighbourhood. Sometimes, however, they happen just because. No one really needs an excuse to throw a big ol' shindig, especially if the whole community is invited.

Consider the new Seven Hills Festival an event in the first mould, but with the spirit of the second as well. It aims to bring the Brisbane suburb together, but it's also taking place because The Rabbit Hole Cafe has been around on The Corso for a decade.

Party in the street in Brisbane's inner east: that's on the agenda from 3–9pm on Saturday, November 5. There'll be food trucks to grab bites from, pop-up bars pouring sips and a whole heap of live entertainment.

The idea is to start a new trend, too — so when this starts happening annually, folks who head along in 2022 will be able to say they were there at the very first festival.
