Things to do in Murray Bridge: January 26-February 1, 2024
Your guide to Australia Day celebrations and more, thanks to Newbridge.
A long weekend and the first day of the school year on Monday mean there’s not much happening around the Murraylands over the next week.
That’s aside from Australia Day celebrations, of course, which will be at Edwards Square, Murray Bridge from 7am and Tailem Bend Town Hall from 11am.
So enjoy those last few days with the kids, if you’ve got them, or look forward to getting further into the swing of 2024 next week.
This weekly feature is brought to you by Newbridge. Premium land is for sale, including exclusive golf course allotments. Enquire today.
