Prospect Spring Fair | Broadview Oval | 25 Oct 2025
EDITOR’S NOTE 24 OCTOBER 2025: EVENT CANCELLED – due to advice from a representative at BOM and the weather system looking unstable with possible thunderstorms on Saturday 25 October, the 2025 Prospect Spring Fair has unfortunately been cancelled.
Gather your family, friends and four-legged companions for a day of fun, food, and entertainment at the Prospect Spring Fair.
The Prospect Spring Fair is back and better than ever in 2025, returning to Broadview Oval/Yarnta Tutu yarta on the last Saturday in October. Whether you’re a thrill-seeker, animal lover, or simply looking for a fun day out, this year’s fair promises something for everyone.
Who will be crowned the fastest sausage dog in the north for 2025? The ever-popular Mini-Dachshund race is back to thrill crowds with its hilarious and heart-pounding action. Last year’s event had 40 sausage dogs battling it out for the title!
Enjoy a variety of live entertainment and community performances, get up close and personal with adorable animals at the petting farm and nursery, keep the kids busy with amusement rides, sideshow games, face-painting, arts and crafts workshops, and explore vibrant adult and youth market stalls filled with delicious food, drink and unique crafts.
