About


Don’t miss the Sweet Days Hot Nights Festival, a family-friendly event including food, music, entertainment and of course the annual Australian Hand Cane Cutting Championships. The Australian Hand Cane Cutting Championships is a test of skill and endurance, with thousands of dollars in prize money up for grabs for competitors.
Spectators will have the opportunity to walk through a paddock of burnt sugarcane and experience the dirty, back-breaking work of a by-gone era. Cheer on the men and women as they swing their cane knives on the way to one competitor being crowned the Australian Hand Cane Cutting Champion.
Sit back and enjoy live music and good old fashioned whip cracking throw downs. Wander through vintage machinery from yesteryear, buy a cold drink from the bar and enjoy food from a wide array of food stalls. There is something to do for the whole family with free children’s craft activities, facepainting, animal farm, jumping castle and much more.
