Watsonia National Events

As a suburb in Victoria, Australia, Watsonia has many annually recognized events that people can participate in or observe. Some of these events are nationally or globally recognized, making Watsonia an exciting place to be throughout the year.

One such event is the Melbourne Cup. Held annually on the first Tuesday of November, this horse race is undoubtedly one of Australia's biggest events. People across the country (and even the world) tune in to watch the race, but for those living in Watsonia, there are numerous places to celebrate the race in person. Numerous bars and pubs in the suburb host Melbourne Cup parties, and it's not uncommon to see residents donning their best racing attire and heading out to enjoy some fun festivities.

Another significant event that occurs annually in Watsonia is ANZAC Day. April 25th commemorates the sacrifices that Australian and New Zealand soldiers made during World War I, but the day has since expanded to remember all those who have served for the country. ANZAC Day marches and ceremonies typically begin early in the morning and can be observed in various locations throughout the suburb.

The Watsonia Football Club also hosts an annual fundraiser event, "The Big Freeze." The event aims to raise money and awareness for people living with motor neurone disease, and it sees members of the Football Club and others from the community plunging into ice-cold waters. Spectators can watch from the shore, and the event usually includes plenty of fun and games for both kids and adults.

Christmas is another time of the year where Watsonia sees plenty of festivities. From carol concerts to Christmas markets, there is something for everyone to get into the holiday spirit. The Watsonia RSL club hosts a Christmas lunch, where members of the community can gather for a delicious meal and festive cheer.

The Whittlesea Country Music Festival is another significant event that takes place annually in Watsonia. While it's not directly in the suburb, the festival is only a short drive away and is a must-visit for country music fans. The festival sees some of the country's most prominent country music stars take to the stage, and it's an event not to be missed.

Overall, Watsonia is a suburb that loves to celebrate and participate in various events throughout the year. From significant national events to community-led celebrations, there is always something to mark on your calendar when living in Watsonia. Whether you're new to the area or have been residing here for years, there will undoubtedly be an event that you won't want to miss.
