RESIDENTS and visitors are invited to come along and be part of the celebration, Converge on the Goulburn 2026. The much-loved event will feature plenty to see, taste and experience throughout the day. Enjoy delicious food, vibrant cultural displays, fun kids’ activities, and a full lineup of live music and performances on Saturday, March 21, from 2pm to 9pm at Victoria Park Lake in Shepparton.
Presented by Greater Shepparton City Council, as part of the Shepparton Arts Festival (March 20 to 29), Converge on the Goulburn will present an outstanding live–music and performance stage as part of its program, creating a one–of–a–kind experience for everyone to enjoy.
A wide range of workshops will also be available, including multicultural story time, face painting, henna painting, and art workshops facilitated by a Yorta Yorta artist and Splinter Contemporary Artists.
For the first time, the event will feature a Makers Market, allowing local creators to sell handmade items such as jewellery, soaps, candles and other crafts made by members of our multicultural community. This new addition aligns with Cultural Diversity Week, which falls during the festival.
Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor, Councillor Shane Sali, said the festival is a fantastic opportunity to bring people together, and enjoy a great time celebrating our community.
“Converge on the Goulburn is a truly unique festival for both our region and the state. It’s a wonderful opportunity to showcase our community, celebrate the people who make it special, and invite friends and family from outside Greater Shepparton to experience it,” he said.
Converge on the Goulburn is a free family community festival with food and drinks available to purchase on site. This is an alcohol-free event.
