With a population of less than 2,000, this quintessential Queensland country town swells to nearly 40,000 people on the last weekend of July as the Festival transforms the town and highway into a gigantic food, market stall and entertainment hub, all staged between its beautiful heritage listed buildings and leopard tree lined streets.
