What’s on in 2026 with free community events across the City of Moreton Bay

Two event delivery contractors, Tourism and Events Moreton Bay and Mask Events, have been appointed to deliver community events across the City of Moreton Bay, confirming who will be responsible for delivering council-supported events moving forward.

With delivery arrangements now in place, a full calendar of free community events is being rolled out for 2026, giving locals clarity on what’s happening and when.

As part of the program, 16 free events have already been confirmed up to 30 June 2026, with more expected to be announced as the year progresses.

The 2026 calendar includes a mix of live music, cultural celebrations, family-friendly festivals and food-focused events.
