Telling Tales in Balingup

***Saturday and weekend tickets now unavailable online. Please go to the Balingup Town Hall to register!! ***

Children's Story Telling Festival

Held over the middle weekend of the July school holidays, the event is designed for children aged 4yrs – 14yrs

Following on from the success of the first Telling Tales in Balingup in 2010 the event has gone from strength to strength, and each year has seen children enjoy and benefit from an affordable and creative weekend.

Many published WA authors and illustrators present interactive workshops throughout the weekend. Multiple sessions on offer at any given time allow you to select a session which best suits you and your children. This year will also see interactive workshops and performances with puppetry, photography, drama, poetry and oral storytelling in its true tradition.

The parade is a real hit with the children, who are able to 'dress up' as their favourite story character and join in the fun.
The parade takes place on Saturday from 12.45pm – 1.15pm.

Adults may accompany the children to the workshops, or enjoy a coffee in the local cafés or browse the many interesting retail outlets. Balingup is renowned for its fabulous events and this Festival is sure to be a weekend worth attending!
