THE WHOLE of the Lake Kawana Community Centre will be ablaze with colour this month, as fourteen orchid societies, a bromeliad society and twenty-five nurseries show the best of their orchids, bromeliads, anthuriums and foliage plants at “Caloundra’s Golden Orchidfest”.
This is a special opportunity to see a wonderful spectacle and delight in the array of fragrances. Admission includes access to talks by eleven renowned speakers, as well as art, floral art, container garden, and photography competitions. Refreshments are available and the venue is wheelchair friendly.
“Caloundra’s Golden Orchidfest” will be open to the public Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 June from 9am until 5pm and on Monday 14 June from 9am until 2.30pm.
Councillor Jenny McKay will officially open the event on Saturday morning and visitors from as far away as New Zealand and Singapore will join with Peter Slipper MP, his wife, Inge, and members of the Sunshine Coast Orchid Society Caloundra for the Orchidfest Dinner at the Power Boat Club Saturday evening.
