Mackay’s floral enthusiasts are in for a treat this month, with the Mackay and District Orchid Society Inc. set to host its annual Spring Orchid Show at the Mackay Senior Citizens’ Centre, 58 Macalister Street, on Saturday 18th October and Sunday 19th October.
Doors will open from 8am to 4pm on Saturday and 8am to 3pm on Sunday, with visitors invited to step into a spectacular display of orchids bursting into bloom for spring. From delicate pastels to vibrant tropical hues, the show will feature a diverse range of orchid varieties, each carefully nurtured by passionate local growers.
In addition to the stunning floral displays, visitors will have the opportunity to purchase orchids, pots, potting mediums, and a variety of growing accessories. Demonstrations will be held across both days, offering hands-on insight into how to divide and repot orchids, with experienced growers on hand to share expert culture advice and growing tips.
For those looking to take home a touch of beauty, raffles featuring orchids will be available, while homemade refreshments, tea, and coffee will be served throughout the event.
Entry is just a $2 gold coin donation, with all proceeds supporting the Mackay and District Orchid Society. The venue is wheelchair accessible, making it a welcoming event for all members of the community.
