Bathurst is always buzzing! 🐷✨

There’s never a dull moment in the village, and the next few months are looking particularly busy. We’ve got plenty of reasons to head to Bathurst, with great food, live music, celebrations, creativity and a few good excuses to get together along the way.

First up: You are invited to a Heritage Day Celebration for Gavin & Lucille's Birthday. Join us for a Bring 'n Braai or a Lamb Spit and enjoy music by Charl Francis in the garden ( weather permitting)

Keep an eye on our page for more details on all the upcoming events. Bathurst, there’s always something happening. ❤️

And they are off...

The Mystery Box Cook-off for the 2026 Bathurst Country Affair is officially underway.

These are the tense few moments when the teams find out what they have to work with, and then the fun begins!

Pop past and say hi to the teams while they are cooking, and then come back a little later and taste what the teams have cooked up.

Who will win? You decide!

ALERT: THE CENTRE OF THE UNIVERSE IS IN INFRASTRUCTURE CRISIS. ACCRA ISO IS SENDING HELP.
Millions of light-years away, the High Council of the Accra Iso galaxy heard the desperate cries from the absolute center of the universe. They listened to the Moo for help, the Baa for salvation, and the early-morning Cock-a-doodle-doo of despair echoing from the potholes of the R67.

They realised humanity was completely defeated by its own municipal decay. So, they did what any responsible galactic empire would do...they sent... well..THEM!

Commissioned in a well-oiled intergalactic transcendence space vehicle, two of Accra Iso's finest, best-groomed, and most severely contoured politicians - EksnieDanie and Whipme Houston - have officially touched down in the Big Fruit Village. Armed with unyielding policies, high-grade glitter, and a poly-amorous, androgynous, sacred directive, they are here to glitter-up the streets and to remind the center of the universe where their power lies!
