Willoughby City is home to one of the most diverse and active communities in Australia. One of the benefits of belonging to such a strong community is the opportunity to celebrate together!
Our multicultural community has several significant days, festivals and celebrations that Council promotes and provides activities for and are enjoyed by residents and visitors to Willoughby.
Willoughby's largest festival is the annual Spring Festival which takes place every September and features the ever popular Willoughby StreetFair. Other annual events include Australia Day, Chinese New Year and Harmony Day. There are local community-run festivals such as the Artarmon and Castlecrag Fairs.
The Melody Market brings the Chatswood CBD to life each Thursday and the Christmas Markets are great place to find that perfect gift.
There is something for everyone to see and get involved in!
