Looking for things to do in the Riverina?
Narrandera Shire makes the perfect starting point for your Riverina adventure. With its central location, the towns of Narrandera, Barellan, and Grong Grong offer a blend of festivals, markets, sporting and outdoor adventures — giving travellers plenty of reasons to stop, stay, and explore more of the region.
Mark your calendar for the must-see highlights: celebrate a conservation success story at the annual Koala Festival, feel the roar of the engines at the Narrandera Rod Run, step back in time at the Good Old Days Festival in Barellan, and dive into the sights, sounds and flavours of the Narrandera Spring Fair. When the year turns, join the town for a sparkling New Year’s Eve celebration that lights up the sky.
Beyond the big festivals, Narrandera Shire is alive with local markets, community gatherings, and sporting events, including AFL, the Malibu Ski Tournament, and the Town2Beach run.
