About
The Tuggeranong Community Festival began 22 years ago as a neighbourhood gathering in the then small suburb of Kambah.
Since the late 1980s, Tuggeranong has been committed to celebrating its community spirit, promoting its multicultural diversity and showcasing its artistic, civic and sporting achievements.
The 2010 Tuggeranong Community Festival (TCF) will be, as always, a free community event that engages people of all ages as audience members or participants. It will be held on the last weekend of November 2010. This twenty-second festival is seeking community input via an online survey to make it the best one yet.
