Snowflakes in Stanthorpe Festival

On the 17^th of July 1st year, around eight centimetres of snow transformed Stanthorpe and surrounds into a winter wonderland.

To commemorate that event and to keep the winter spirit alive, the Granite Belt is hosting a new festival, ‘Snowflakes in Stanthorpe’. It’s on from the 1^st to the 3^rd of July and there’ll be an ice rink, snow making machines, snowman making competitions, fun runs, fireworks, farmers’ markets and much more.

Making a wintery weekend of it around Stanthorpe is easy. The Brass Monkey Brewhouse is open Thursday to Monday each week 10am till 6pm. It offers a range of craft beers made by local Ernie Butler.

Heavenly Chocolates is located on Pyramids Road. It’s Stanthorpe’s only chocolate shop and offers a great range sourced from all over Australia. Right behind the chocolate shop is Wisteria Cottages, three rustic cottages that are perfect for couples and families. A two night stay starts at $170 a night and that includes a delicious country breakfast basket.
