On Sunday September 4th the streets of Cabramatta will come alive with an array of colour, activity and culinary delights ending with an impressive fireworks display at 8pm.

The celebration of the Autumn harvest and a time to appreciate the beauty of the full moon, will be celebrated in style with contemporary and traditional singing and dancing, martial arts displays, Children’s Lantern Parade and much more.

My Kitchen Rules (MKR) 2016 winners Tasia and Gracia will add spice and a whole lot of chillies to the stage at the festival.

The Mayor of Fairfield City said Tasia and Gracia were bringing their cooking skills to the festival, adding to the celebrity entertainment line-up this year.

“Tasia and Gracia will excite your taste buds with some great recipes, including their spicy prawn and sesame toast,” the Mayor said.

“The ‘Spice Sisters’ will share with the audience their passion for food and culture by showcasing their culinary tips on stage at 11.05am and 1.35pm at the Mekong Mounties Group Stage.

“They are entertaining, energetic, fun and proud of their Indonesian culture and heritage.”
