Heywood Wood Wine and Roses Festival

The Wood Wine and Roses Festival was first held in Heywood in 1993 and has grown over the years to be an award-winning event in Western Victoria. Held on the last Saturday in February each year the festival is action-packed with a wide variety of activities and events for the whole family to enjoy.

The street parade is a popular visual feast that officially launches the event. A large crowd eagerly lines the main street to watch the long line of creative floats, motorized vehicles, brass and pipe bands. Once the parade concludes, crowds flock to the entrance gates and the festival comes alive.
