The beloved Djerriwarrh Festival in Melton will return in November this year.
From 11.30am to 9pm on Saturday November 23, a street parade will shut down the section of High Street between Hannah Watts Park and Smith Street.
Along the route, locals can expect live music, fireworks, a kids zone, a pet expo, an intercultural stage, and a market village.
There will also be an emergency services display and a sustainability lane.
Schools, community groups, sports clubs, businesses, and other organisations in the area can all apply to be involved in the parade or have their own stall.
Applications are open from now and close at 5pm on Sunday September 15.
Melton mayor Kathy Majdlik said the street parade was “iconic“ and would lead to long-lasting memories for participants.
“Whether you are regular in the parade or have never done it before, I encourage your school, club or community group to sign up and be part of something that fills the Melton Town Centre with colour and joy,“ she said.
The theme for this year’s Djerriwarrh Festival Street Parade theme is “The City We Create“.
Applicants are encouraged to share their vision for Melton and help to showcase the strength of the community.
