Skateboarding workshops and demonstrations will be leading attractions when the upgraded Tyalgum Memorial Park and its new skate park are officially opened on Saturday, September 2.
The community event, to be held from 10am to 2pm, will also feature circus activities, a free barbecue and stalls.
A ceremony at 10.30am will formally open the park.
