ISF has been postponed.

New date: 14 February 2026.
Same place. Even more celebration.

The International Street Fiesta has been postponed due to severe weather. The new date is Saturday, 14 February 2026, in Queens Park, Toowoomba.

 It is with great sadness that we announce the postponement of the International Street Fiesta due to the forecast of severe weather and thunderstorms this Saturday.  While we cannot be completely certain, we believe it is best to prioritise everyone’s safety and avoid unnecessary risk. The safety of our performers, stallholders, volunteers, and visitors must always come first. The predicted weather would also significantly affect the setup, logistics, and overall enjoyment of the festival.

 The event has been rescheduled to Saturday 14 February 2026, and we hope for clear skies, bright colours, and a truly joyful celebration.

 We know many were excited to celebrate with us this weekend, and we share your disappointment — but we promise the wait will be worth it! Stay tuned for updates as we prepare to bring you an even bigger and brighter celebration in February. ❤️🌏

Thank you for your understanding and continued support — we can’t wait to celebrate with you soon!
