A Night In The Canefields - A Rare Experience Awaits

As golden light settles across the paddocks and the canefields begin to glow at dusk, Oh Deere Farm Stay is preparing to host one of the Mackay region’s most distinctive country experiences — A Night in the Canefields.

Returning on Saturday 18th July from 4pm to 9pm, the highly anticipated event invites locals and visitors alike to step onto a working sugar cane farm for an evening of live music, authentic rural hospitality and the rare spectacle of a live canefire at sundown.

‍

Owner and operator Karinda Anderson said the event offered a unique opportunity to experience a tradition rarely seen in the Mackay region.

‍

“This is a rare event, and it’s not something commonly done,” she said.

‍

Set against a stunning rural backdrop, the evening will feature live entertainment from Mango Junction, delicious food vans, a fully licensed bar, children’s activities, warming fire pits and camping for guests wanting to soak up the atmosphere beneath the stars.

More than just a night out, Karinda said the event was about reconnecting people with the land and celebrating the farming industry that supports regional communities.

‍

“People, especially kids, don’t always get the chance to see where food comes from,” she said.

‍

“This is a chance to experience life on a working farm and learn more about the sugar industry, while enjoying a night out with your friends and family.”

‍

At just $55 per vehicle, A Night in the Canefields is shaping up to be a unique celebration of farming, community and top-notch regional Queensland hospitality.
