Sounds of Spring to bring Memorial Gardens to life

Griffith's Memorial Gardens will come alive with music, market stalls and activities for kids on Saturday 28 October 2023 when Sounds of Spring is held.

Organised by Griffith's Youth Advisory Group (YAG), the free event will run from 5pm to 9.30pm.

Event coordinator, Lara Rossetto said Sounds of Spring was born from YAG's desire to create a new family friendly event celebrating young people in Griffith.

"We have so many talented young musicians in Griffith and we thought this would be a good way to showcase and support them," Ms Rossetto said.

"It's going to be a nice chilled evening with a little bit for everyone. We've got a wide range of market stalls coming along and lots for kids of all ages to do.

"We'll have free face painting and an arts and craft station plus Henna by YAG members, a barbecue will be provided and Mr Twister will also be coming along."

Performances will include Demi & Jessie, Charlie Jones, Alex Pietroboni, Micheal Dilorenzo and the MCC Band.

Griffith Mayor, Councillor Doug Curran said it was good to see the passionate YAG members continue to work together to bring new ideas to life.

"I am really impressed with this group of young people. They have been doing some excellent work," Councillor Curran said.

"The energy and commitment they bring to events such as the Glow Roller Discos and now this is inspiring.

"I urge locals to get behind Sounds of Spring and help make it a success."

This event has been made possible thanks to funding from the NSW Government's Reconnecting Regional NSW - Community Events Program.
