Tasman Turtle’s Picnic Day Returns This Saturday

One of Hinchinbrook’s most beloved family fun days is making its much-anticipated return this Saturday, 14 June, as Tasman Turtle’s Picnic Day takes over TYTO Parklands in Ingham for another action-packed celebration.

From 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., families can enjoy a day of entertainment, creativity, and connection—all completely free. Proudly hosted by Hinchinbrook Shire Council, the event offers the perfect chance for locals and visitors alike to come together in one of the region’s most scenic natural settings.

New for 2025 is a rock-climbing wall and fun-filled circus workshops by CircUp, offering everything from juggling and tumbling to acro balance and plate spinning. Crowd favourites are also set to return, including Adrenaline Games Laser Tag, a petting zoo from Carter’s Farm, and colourful face painting.

The event places a strong focus on environmental awareness, with interactive eco-friendly activities designed to inspire sustainable habits in fun and engaging ways.

Food, drinks, and sweet treats will be available for purchase throughout the day, with local vendors offering something for every taste.

Whether exploring creative workshops, playing adrenaline-pumping games, or simply soaking up the sunshine with family and friends, Tasman Turtle’s Picnic Day is set to be a vibrant community celebration.
