Various information stalls from a range of community groups will be there to help educate festival goers and there will also be a chance for interested people to sign up as volunteers if they would like to become more active in taking care of the local environment.

A recycled art competition and repurposed/inventor competition will also be a part of the festival and there will be face painting for children, raffles, food stalls and much more.
