Ferragosto brought Great North Road, Five Dock to life once again, with Italian culture, creativity and community taking centre stage! 🇮🇹✨

As a Supporting Partner, we were delighted to be part of and welcome families and visitors to our stand, with plenty of fun throughout the day, from face painting and arts & crafts to children’s activities, games and challenges with prizes. 🎨🎭🎁

Our Italian Bilingual School Choir took to the FerraComunità stage and proudly showcased their Italian language skills through song. Bravissimi! 👏🎶

Over on the FerraVarietà Main Stage, James Liotta Entertainer, Claudia Migliaccio Music and Arturo Toscani brought plenty of energy to the celebration with comedy, performances and classic Italian favourites.

Ferragosto is a wonderful opportunity for the Italian-Australian community to share its culture and traditions with the wider community, and we were proud to be part of it.

A big thank you to the City of Canada Bay for another fantastic celebration!

We can’t wait to do it all again next year 💙
