LisAmore!
Overview
LisAmore! is Lismore's beloved annual celebration of Italian culture—a vibrant festival that brings locals and visitors together for a joyful day of authentic flavours, music, dance, and la dolce vita energy. Wander through stalls serving Italian classics, enjoy live performances, and admire an impressive display of Italian cars and motorbikes.
Immerse yourself in Italian language workshops, meet colourful Commedia dell'Arte characters, and let the kids explore a world of fun with outdoor games, chess and soccer, Italian language sessions, and hands-on creative crafts.
Held just two weeks after the iconic Lismore Lantern Parade, it's the perfect excuse to make Lismore your Winter Wonder destination—come for one celebration, stay for both, and experience the magic of the season in beautiful Northern NSW.
Come and experience a festival where friendship, culture, and community come together in an unforgettable celebration.
