The Laidley Spring Festival returns this September, bringing three days of spring celebrations to Laidley and Forest Hill from 11–13 September.
From local markets and live entertainment to gardening, classic cars and family activities, there’s plenty happening across the weekend. It’s also a chance to see the Lockyer Valley at its most local, with businesses, growers, makers, artists and community groups all getting involved.
For Park Lake residents, it’s another local event to enjoy and an easy way to explore more of the region.
The festival spreads throughout Laidley rather than being centred around one main venue, so there’s plenty of opportunity to wander through town and see what’s happening.
Three Days of Spring Fun
More buyers are looking beyond traditional suburban blocks in search of a lifestyle that offers room to grow.
Whether it’s space for a shed, a pool, a large garden or simply more room for the family to enjoy, acreage living provides a level of flexibility that’s becoming increasingly difficult to find.
At Park Lake Adare, you’ll enjoy generous homesites, established green spaces and a welcoming community, all within easy reach of schools, shopping, cafés and essential services.
