The Wynnum Manly Spring Parade began in 1916 as the Wynnum Ambulance Spring Parade, a fundraiser for the local ambulance service. More than a century later it has grown into one of the district's defining community events, and it still carries a good deal of local heritage with it. The Wynnum Manly Historical Society records and celebrates that history, keeping the tradition alive for each new generation.
The festival is being delivered in partnership with Wynnum Commerce Inc. No bookings are required for the Sunday program. Further updates are available through the Bayside Spring Festival Facebook page.
