Proserpine Rock Wallaby Festival
8 May 2025
Fun Filled Festival Dedicated to the Awareness of the Proserpine Rock Wallaby from a Creative Perspective
The 2025 Proserpine Rock Wallaby Festival was a vibrant celebration of art, community, and local culture — and what a success it was! The Proserpine Entertainment Centre came alive with a stunning exhibition featuring local talent, while the town itself became a playful trail of discovery thanks to the 3D Rock Wallaby Treasure Hunt. These cheeky sculptures, lovingly painted by local artists, sparked joy for kids and adults alike and brought a fresh buzz to local businesses.
With the support of 47 generous sponsors, including Whitsunday Regional Council, Wilmar, Bendigo Bank, Tassal, FRRR, and the Croc Safari, the festival was made possible through true community collaboration. Volunteers, artists, and local organisations all came together to create something truly memorable — a heartfelt thank you to everyone involved!
Creative Connections Whitsundays will continue to lead the creative side of the event, but the future of the festival relies on even greater community involvement. Forming a dedicated Proserpine Rock Wallaby Festival Committee is the next important step to ensure this celebration continues to grow and thrive.
