Council is proud to host a special Harmony Day event for the community on 21 March 2025, bringing people together to celebrate the rich cultural diversity of Glen Innes Severn.

With almost 20 per cent of residents born overseas, this event highlights the importance of inclusivity and provides an opportunity for the community to connect, share traditions and embrace the many cultures that contribute to our Local Government Area’s vibrant identity.

“Our community is enriched by people from diverse backgrounds, and Harmony Day is a chance to acknowledge and celebrate that,” Cr Davis said. “It’s about embracing different traditions, sharing stories and fostering a sense of belonging for everyone.”
