Looking for an affordable family day out this Halloween weekend? Jimboomba Festival is bringing three huge days of carnival rides, fireworks, live entertainment, foodie and family fun to Jimboomba Hills College from October 30 to November 1 2026. Designed as a big weekend of entertainment without the big price tag, the festival will transform the school grounds into a family-friendly celebration packed with things to see and do. Expect carnival rides, unlimited ride wristbands, fireworks, live music and Venom Pro Wrestling, alongside classic cars, lawn games, sideshow games and on-site competitions. There will also be plenty happening for little festival-goers, with face painting, roaming characters, showbags and movies screening each night, plus content creators and plenty of entertainment throughout the weekend. And, of course, you won't go hungry. The festival will bring together a huge range of food and dessert vendors, as well as handmade and homegrown retailers selling plenty of goodies to browse between rides and activities. The festival is keeping things wallet-friendly, with three-day Unlimited Ride Wristbands available for just $25 when pre-ordered online for a limited time. That means you can come back across all three days and make the most of the carnival rides without paying for each ride individually. Vendor applications are also still open, with food, dessert, beverage and retail operators invited to apply via Street Feast. The festival is held at Jimboomba Hills College, 105-111 Johanna St, Jimboomba.
