Home > About Us > The Festival of the Forests

Each year, the Friends give you the opportunity to explore the emerging forests
in new and wondrous ways. Watch, listen and learn as the history of the Arboretum’s
rare and symbolic trees are revealed throughout the day.
Discover more about Canberra’s unique 250 hectare parkland with spectacular views
across Canberra. If you’ve been once, you’ll want to come again! Off road parking available on site, or why not take the family on a Sunday bike
ride to the event. Bike parking available at the Events Terrace. Enjoy the on-site
catering and remember to bring your refillable water bottle.
The 2012 Festival of the Forests will be held on April 1st 2012. More details will be available on this page shortly, so check back soon.
