(TRAVPR.COM) AUSTRALIA - August 13th, 2013 - Spring into the school holidays with lots of free family entertainment during the second annual Fringe Festival in Caloundra on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast.
The Fringe Festival offers 11 days of diverse activities from Friday, September 27 through to Monday, October 7, which is perfect timing for the September school holidays throughout Australia.
An array of Festival events is hosted at over 16, mostly open air, venues in and around the scenic foreshore parks of Kings Beach, Bulcock Beach, Happy Valley, and the Central Business District.
