Spring Bloom 2024 Experiences and Markets

IN Spring 2024 there are amazing experiences to be had in Bendigo and Heathcote such as:

• The famous Cornella Canola Walk (August 16 – October 4, 2024) where visitors can take in the trail of hundreds of acres of vibrant coloured canola fields, near Heathcote. After the scenic walk head over to nearby Shiraz Republic or Cornella Brewery for a tasting experience.

• Sonic Bloom (September 1 – November 30, 2024) Rosalind Park’s historic Conservatory will come to life with a transformative sound experience designed by Artistic Producer Aimee Chapman. Sonic Bloom invites you to step away from the everyday bombardment of screens and visual stimuli and reconnect with Bendigo’s extraordinary parks and gardens through immersive soundscapes, audio stories, and live music. Join us on the Conservatory lawns on Sundays, September 8, October 6, and November 3, as Aimee Chapman is joined by an eclectic roster of talented musicians and performers from across regional Victoria, including Troy Firebrace, Aviva Endean, and Nathan Curnow.

• Village of Gnomes (September 14 – October 19, 2024) Have fun finding the local Gnomes (Made by Col Iron) in the jewel of Eaglehawk, the Canterbury Gardens precinct. Highlights include, the iconic ornamental water fountain, meticulously planted ornamental garden beds which look fantastic during Spring, the Mulga Bill inspired Playspace for families and Lake Neangar and Lake Tom Thumb which provides great walking trails to explore.

• Bloomin’ Good Market (September 29 & October 27, 2024) New to Bendigo Bloom and located near the tulip displays along Pall Mall is a pop-up market that celebrates Spring and Bendigo’s UNESCO City and Region of Gastronomy. Think macarons, honey, jams, brittle, wine, spirits, fresh flowers, coffee, cakes, donuts, pastries, and bread. Food trucks will also cover Turkish, Indian and vegan/vegetarian options.

*The timing of the Tulips blooming is based on previous years seasonal blooming times – please check our website for weather and blooming timing updates.
