The Hills Festival 2026 launches tomorrow with a month of events, performances and activities across the community.

From May 1-31, Arana Hills, Ferny Hills, Everton Hills, Bunya and Draper will have everything from live performances and outdoor experiences to family events.

Highlights of the 2026 program include:

  • Community events bringing people together

  • Immersive performances as part of Anywhere Festival

  • Groovin’ in the Green - live music and outdoor entertainment

  • A diverse program showcasing local talent, creativity and unique experiences.


The month-long celebration will culminate in Hills Carnivale, a colourful finale featuring entertainment, rides, food and fireworks.

City of Moreton Bay Acting Mayor Jodie Shipway said that the festival was a highlight on the City’s community calendar.

“Hills Festival 2026 is a celebration of creativity, local talent and community spirit,” she said.

Cr Matt Constance (Div 10) said the month-long program gives plenty of reasons to get out, explore the neighbourhood and connect with others.
