KAB NSW 2026 Tidy Towns Awards Weekend

Join us for the 2026 NSW Tidy Towns Awards Weekend in Orange, hosted by Keep Australia Beautiful NSW and Orange from 16 - 18 October 2026.

The weekend brings together Tidy Towns finalists, judges, community representatives and supporters from across NSW to recognise the work being undertaken in communities across the state, connect with others involved in the program and experience some of what the Orange region has to offer.

Friday evening begins with a relaxed Welcome Catch-Up at the Hotel Canobolas, providing an opportunity to catch up with fellow attendees before the Awards program begins (Food and drinks at own expense).

Saturday features the announcement of category award recipients and inspiring case studies from this year's entries over morning tea and lunch at The Hotel Canobolas, followed by a choice of two afternoon tours showcasing the best of the Orange region.

At the Awards Dinner at Banksia Orange on Saturday evening, we will come together to honour the communities making a real difference across NSW and announce the coveted Overall Tidy Towns Award.

The weekend concludes on Sunday morning with a Farewell BBQ Breakfast at the Orange Botanic Gardens, followed by the traditional handover of the Tidy Towns flags at 7:45am.

We hope you'll join us for what promises to be an inspiring and memorable weekend.
