The Macedon Ranges Autumn Festival returns for 2024 from April 5 to 28, and will showcase towns across the Macedon Ranges through a range of new and returning trails, events, activities and participating business specials.
Joining the popular suite of tailored trails and regular markets this year are the Live and Local in Community Halls series, celebrating locally based artists and community venues, and the Treasure Trail highlighting some of the region’s top leafy picnic spots.
Returning are the Autumn Pie and Tart Trail, the Food and Drink Passport, Tipple Trails and the Edgy Veg Trail, with the Woodend Visitor Information Centre the go-to festival hub.
Mayor Annette Death said the festival, now in its fourth year, was a growing celebration of the region’s natural beauty mixed with some of the best local, seasonal produce and performers.
“I’m unashamedly biased but proud in saying that the Macedon Ranges has so much to offer all year round, but there’s definitely something extra special in the air during autumn,” she said.
“Whether you’re a first-time visitor to our shire, a regular visitor or a resident, we encourage you to plan your trip in advance and enjoy all of what our beautiful towns have to offer.”
