Winter MEAT Feast Twilight Carnival

11 JULY 2026

Ipswich Showgrounds

Fire up your appetite at the Winter Meat Feast, with smoky BBQ aromas, slow-cooked meats and mouth-watering food creations fresh off the grill. Enjoy a feast of flavours from specialty meat vendors and a variety food trucks (with delicious options available for vegetarians and other dietary needs), grab a drink from the licensed bar, and soak up the atmosphere with live country music and join in the line dancing fun. There'll also be market stalls to browse, carnival rides and plenty of activities to keep the kids entertained. And when the sun goes down, make your way to the spectacular bonfire – the ultimate centrepiece of an unforgettable winter night at the Ipswich Showgrounds.
