Wondai Country Festival

A day of country fun with markets, music, kids entertainment and more. Do come early to enjoy as part of your running weekend.

Wondai is a small country town on the Bunya Highway. About 2.5 hours from the Sunshine Coast and 3 hours from Brisbane. We are friendly and welcoming.

The Wondai Country Festival and Wondai Country Running Festival are an innovative joint partnership combining country hospitality and healthy lifestyle.

The next Wondai Country Festival will commence at 7 am on 28 June 2025 with the Wondai Country Market in Coronation Park and the regular Wondai parkrun also starting at 7 am.

During the markets there will be a huge number of rides, market and food stalls. We will have a full day of entertainment at the Percy Iszlaub Pavilion, which will include live country music with the Stolzenberg Brothers, Wondai Town & District Band, local choirs and performers including local whip crackers.

Saturday afternoon will see the McEuen forest 11.1 km and 21.1 km trail runs beginning at 12.30 pm near the timber museum.

Sunday morning will see the rail trail runs including a marathon, half marathon and the 5 km and 10 km Rail Trail runs.

A detailed entertainment program will be available leading up to the festival…so stay tuned.
