So much fun was had at last year’s Tweed Regional Museum Street Party, they are doing it again in 2025, and things are starting to get exciting!
Mark your calendars, the Tweed’s biggest party is back, with the 2025 Tweed Regional Museum Street Party lighting up the Museum precinct on Saturday, September 6, from 3 to 9 pm.
Beat the heat
Timed perfectly to beat the heat and allow everyone to enjoy live music into the springtime evening, this free family-friendly event brings together an exciting new program of entertainment, food, art and after-hours fun.
Tweed Regional Museum Director Molly Green said the popular event has become a favourite for locals and visitors alike. ‘In only a few years, the Street Party has become a fixture on the cultural event calendar— it’s our way of celebrating everything that makes the Tweed special – its stories, its spirit and its sense of community,’ said Ms Green.
This year we’ve shaken things up with a fresh program designed to take you from low-key afternoon vibes through to an electric evening of live music and fun.’
So many highlights
Street Party highlights include: a main stage packed with live music including DENNIS, Blind Corners, Amber Rose; artistic creations like Matthew Aberline with his colour packed inflatable flowers installation; Interactive experiences such as the Drop-in Drawing Booth with Madeline White; creative vibes with weaving and charm making workshops, as well as brick making with Belinda Smith; Yarning with Uncle Franc Krasna and the chance to learn all about the Six Seasons Cultural Calendar which uses cultural knowledge to represent seasonal markers throughout a year; kids entertainment aplenty including the Street Party Adventure Game, face painting, a chalk free-wall, silent disco and more; the Street Party Bar by Earth Brewery and the chance to refuel in our food zone with delicious local flavours and sweet treats; the Museum on Wheels, featuring native plant giveaways and sensory boxes, and plenty of roaming performers and pop-up surprises throughout the party!
An unforgettable afternoon
