Plans for the 2022 Energy Breakthrough (EB) are ramping up, with a movie night and activities to feature alongside the competition.
According to council, the side show and carnival rides will not be included in this year’s event, however an EB Central area will run over two days offering a range of activities and interactive, educational and active exhibitions, as well as a chance to get close to the event action.
A new addition to the weekend’s activities, EB, along with Freeza and Telstra, invite the community to bring a picnic rug along to the Open Air cinema to watch the latest movie release of Minions: The Rise of Gru on November 19, starting at 8 pm.
Central Goldfields Shire councillor and Energy Breakthrough governance group chairperson Liesbeth Long said excitement was building for this year’s event.
“Whilst we know our local school communities are busy preparing and excited for the event we really want to encourage our local community, who might not have children or grandchildren involved to know they are very much encouraged to come along and enjoy the event,” she said.
“There’s lots of fun to be had for residents of all ages and so we’d love to see our community come along, experience the excitement first-hand and enjoy a great day out.
“Not only does the EB Central offer a great viewing point for all the action, but at the same time you can enjoy engaging displays and find out more about the latest technology whilst enjoying the festival atmosphere.”
The Energy Breakthrough will run from November 16 to 20.
EB Central will be on from 10 am to 5 pm on the Princes Park oval and Earl Street on the grass area over November 18-19.
