The Wyndham Learning Festival is a week-long celebration of learning, not just a single day! It features a range of free events, hosted by community, businesses, and individuals, that promote lifelong learning and personal growth.
Events take place throughout Wyndham, allowing residents to engage with learning opportunities in their own neighbourhoods.
Reflecting the diverse needs and interests of the local community, the Festival is delivered by Wyndham Community & Education Centre (Wyndham CEC) with support from Wyndham City Council.
Each year, the Festival grows, welcoming new events, sponsors, and attendees, showcasing our vibrant and diverse community.
