The event promotes timber and forestry with its wood chop events but also celebrates local activities such as a dog high jump competition, car and truck displays, and live entertainment.
Highlights will include the truck show with a display of log trucks from various eras, as well as the wood chop event which is a cornerstone of any timber festival, and the iconic parade through the main streets of Heyfield. There will also be a timber workers memorial vigil to pay respects the workers of the industry at the timber workers memorial.
