Lakeside Alive returns to Caroline Springs for another fun-filled family day out by the lake.

Bring the whole family and friends together and head to Lake Caroline on Saturday, March 15, from 12.30pm to 8.30 pm, for a day of free entertainment including roving performers, market stalls, live music and fireworks.

“What better way to spend a day than with family and friends, enjoying some delicious food and free entertainment by picturesque Lake Caroline,” Melton mayor Steve Abboushi said.

“There’s something for everybody at Lakeside Alive, with activities for all ages, so come along and join in some family-friendly fun.”

Keep the kids entertained with a silent disco, African drumming workshop, face painting, giant bubbles, art and craft activities, and the chance to meet our local emergency service heroes.

“It’s also a great opportunity to support our local businesses, so make sure you explore the shops and eateries around the lake while you are there,” Cr Abboushi said.

For those who are into the finer things in life, browse art, jewellery and clothing by local artisans at the market stalls, while being enthralled by the amazing talents of the roving stilt walkers, fire twirlers, chalk artists and more.

When it’s time to satisfy your hunger, the range of food trucks serving yummy treats is ready to fill you up, or you can grab a bite at one of the delicious local eateries surrounding the lake.

Chill out to some live music on the main stage, with Australian indie-folk duo Pierce Brothers back from touring the world to headline the event.

To cap the night off, sit back, relax, and enjoy the twilight fireworks spectacular over the lake.
