The inaugural Coffs Coast Cartoon Festival is being held on Father’s Day, Sunday 2 September, in conjunction with the 30th Rotary Cartoon Awards, hosted by The Bunker Cartoon Gallery.

The Festival is thought to be the first official cartoon festival ever held in Australia.

Celebrate Father’s Day in a unique and memorable way and come along and join in the family fun at the Harbourside Markets, located on the stunning Jetty Foreshores at Coffs Harbour.

There will be many high-profile cartoonists and artists in town for the Rotary Cartoon Awards and they’ll be lending a hand to help make the cartoon festival an amazing family day out. There will be workshops, pop-up shops, artists’ Q&A, live drawing, caricatures, pavement art, a grand cartoon-costume parade, and much more!

The Rotary Cartoon Awards will be on display daily from 10 am to 4 pm at the Bunker Cartoon Gallery from 1 September until 21 October.
