From the screens of legendary movies, superheroes, princes and princesses will come to life at Mt Druitt Festival on 30 September.

Festival goers will enjoy a meet and greet with fantasy characters including Batman, Superman, Snow White, Spider-Man, Belle from Beauty and the Beast, and the Frozen princesses, Anna and Elsa.

This year, for the first time, the festival will be held at Mt Druitt Swimming Centre. 

“Blacktown City Council is proud to support the Mt Druitt community and festival, now in its 25th year,” Mayor of Blacktown City, Councillor Stephen Bali said.

“The festival has a long and successful history, but after more than two decades in Dawson Mall it’s time for a change.

“The Mt Druitt Swimming Centre with its pools, large spaces and excellent facilities is the ideal venue to celebrate the 2017 festival.”

Mayor Bali said the event includes free entry to the pools and lots of fun activities for the whole family to enjoy.

“There is so much on offer at this year’s festival,” he said.

“We’ve got free rides, games, food trucks, craft workshops, music and dance performances, a blacksmith demonstration and a pool Zumba class. 

“You can bring the whole family and have a great, affordable day out with nearly everything on offer free of charge.

“I encourage everyone in the community to come along and celebrate the talent, diversity and history that makes Mt Druitt such a vibrant community.”
