What is this page?

This page shares details of an event which was posted on Facebook, sent to me via email, or where the organisation doesn’t have a website.

Many Canberra Digest readers are cutting down on social media. Because some events live only on Facebook and other walled gardens ☹️, people can’t always view the details without an account. When possible, I publish the key info here so it’s accessible to everyone ☺️.

You can still click through to the original event page, when available, if you prefer to use that platform.

P.S. If you have an event coming up and would like a page like this to share with others, just email me the details and I’ll put it online.

Play Outside Day

Sunday April 6, 10am - 2pm

Canberra Play Outside Day is back! And this time, we’re bringing out the power tools 🛠😱

Yes, actual power tools—for kids and adults! And the legends from SALT Ladies Tradies will be there to show you how to use them! 💪💥 The project? A cheese board. Because nothing says “I’m an absolute pro at life” like serving snacks on a board you made yourself. The best part? You get to take it home. 🧀

But that’s just the start. Here’s what else is happening:
✨ Inflatable obstacle course
✨ Hammocks, slack lines and garden games
🖍 Charcoal drawing and crafts
🎵 Live music – featuring Angie Who, Bec Taylor, Canberra Burns Club Pipe Band and the Lyrebirds, and PRISM Jazz ensemble
🎭 Roving performances – including a bag piper who may or may not appear out of nowhere
🌻 Low sensory play – a chill space for little ones who prefer a calmer vibe.
🥐 Haig Park Village Markets (8am–2pm) because weekends = good coffee and market snacks.
✨ And (maybe) the BIGGEST bubble machine you’ve ever seen!

📅 Sunday, April 6
⏰ 10am - 2pm
📍 Haig Park, top of Lonsdale St.
💰 FREE!
👶👧 All ages welcome

Grab your friends, bring the kids, and make a day of it!
