Come along to a fun day at the Ballan Autumn Festival. It is an annual celebration of local culture, creativity and community, and is one of the oldest regional country fairs in the Moorabool Shire.

Autumn Festival 2026 promises to be the best ever, with a central stage for entertainment, more artisanal market stalls, and a seated and shaded dining precinct, along with the Festival’s perennial crowd pleasers. 

Make sure to visit the SEC pop-up food station where the Food Affectionist, Lillie Giang will be serving up some favourite bites such as vegetable puffs, Peking-style wraps, smokey cauliflower tacos and vegetable gyozas. Tastings are free.

Don’t miss the Grand Parade, and get up close and personal with an amazing selection of beautiful vintage cars.

Browse over 100 market stalls and put together a feast from a huge array of food trucks, gathered in the Festival’s new seated and shaded dining precinct.
