And another Toodyay festival bites the dust..

IN THE week before Christmas Toodyay Shire councillors voted to cancel the Toodyay International Food Festival – an event that had run for 19 years in conjunction with the Avon Descent.

The following councillors in Cr Dival, Duri, McCormick, McKeown, Wrench and Prater endorsed the officer’s recommendation “to not run the food festival in 2025 in favour of embarking on a new approach for the running of events to create smaller events in the main street of Toodyay that benefits local business, community and tourism”.

Cr Madasci voted against the recommendation.
