About the Event
About
Winner of Moorabool Shire’s Community Event of the Year 2023, the Blackwood Woodchop and Easter Carnival offers a fun, action-packed day out for the whole family.
Now in its 122nd year, the event features one of the oldest woodchopping competitions in Victoria, attracting axemen and women from across the State, and incredible music throughout the day, with high energy Australian-Celtic band Austral and old-time bluesman CW Stoneking leading the way.
The Carnival begins with a street parade, followed by a host of activities in addition to the woodchop and music, including tug-o-war, gumboot throwing, pet show, market stalls, delicious eats and licensed bars. Loads of fun stuff for kids – treasure hunt, novelty games and races, face-painting, and more. All set against the beautiful backdrop of Blackwood Recreation Reserve “the prettiest sportsground in Victoria”!
