Description
You have Skied, Bungied, Slipped, Slided, Spat and (hopefully) enjoyed what they had to offer. Now its time to tell them what you thought of their iconic festival!
The good the bad and the ugly, they want it all, as it can only be a festival for the people that way!
... moreIf you've never seen anyone split open 47 watermelons in 60 seconds using nothing but, well... their own melon, you should probably come to the Chinchilla Melon Festival for one heck of a good laugh!
Known as the 'Melon Capital' of Australia, Chinchilla produces a quarter of Australia's melons and celebrates the fact biennially in February. Join with the locals for some hilarious fun and festivities as events, such as melon skiing, melon iron man, melon bungee, melon bullseye, pip spitting and melon tossing, get into full throw.
