Bega Council invites residents and visitors to their Australia Day celebrations this Thursday 26 January with a free breakfast at 7.30am in Bega’s Littleton Gardens.
At 8.30am, Bega Council will recognise and celebrate the achievements and community contributions of our 2023 Citizens of the Year and Australia Day Award winners.
Then they will welcome our latest new Australians at an official Australian Citizenship Ceremony with Member for Eden-Monaro, Kristy McBain reading the national citizenship message.
This year Bega Council welcomes Australia Day Ambassador, Jay Allen (OAM) to the celebrations.
Entertainment on the day will be provided by local musician and former Australia’s Got Talent contestant Sam Stevenson and the event will be broadcast live on the Bega District News Facebook page.
