The Australian Italian Festival was founded in 1996 by the passionate Italian community of Ingham and the wider Hinchinbrook Shire. It has since grown from the dedication of multiple generations of volunteers.
The predominant culture of the Hinchinbrook Shire is Italian, as many Italians migrated to Ingham in the late 1800s and early 1900s to work in the cane fields and then stayed to raise their families. While the Australian Italian Festival focuses on the Italian culture, it also includes our First Nations people and other nationalities who have made Ingham and the Hinchinbrook Shire so culturally diverse.
The 2022 Australian Italian Festival will be held on the 4th and 5th of June at TYTO Parklands in Ingham, North Queensland. During this weekend, the Parklands will be transformed into a full-scale piazza with nonstop, world-class entertainment. Guests gain access to entertainment, concerts, competitions, free amusement rides for the children, market stalls, homemade, mouth-watering Italian food from professional Italian chefs and the best local Italian Nonnas!
