To use a well known saying: “It was a beauty!”

The 2025 Cross Cultural Carnivale was that and so much more. Dance, music, colour and spectacular food from all over world, delivered by those who have chosen to make Dubbo their home.

Ollie Robbins Oval was once again host to a fantastic afternoon and evening event that attracted many across the afternoon and evening, finishing with some spectacular fireworks.

ORISCON was effusive in its thanks on social media to those who came and supported the cultural festival.

"From the bottom of our hearts, we want to say a big thank you to everyone who came. [It] reminded us why we love this community so much...

"A celebration of who we are together: proud, diverse, and united," organisers said on social media.

Well done to ORISCON and the many who organised and worked, entertained us, fed us and to those who attended who went away very happy that they had attended.
