Heroes, Legends and Superstars is a fun, inclusive community event bringing people of all ages and abilities together for an afternoon and evening of entertainment, connection and plenty of laughs.
Hosted by Care Connect Community and Disability Services, the event will feature live entertainment, music, rides, activities, local heroes, emergency services and more.
The event was created after recognising a gap in the community for social events that are genuinely inclusive of people with disability, while still being something the whole community can enjoy together. It's not a disability event or a community event - it's simply an event for everyone.
Come with family, friends, support worker or alone. Come exactly as you are, have some fun and be part of a night where everyone belongs.
