OBF Parade

Orange Blossom Festival Street Parade Returns to Rouse Hill Town Centre

Saturday, 19 September 2026 from 11am to 4pm on Main Street at Rouse Hill Town Centre, Rouse Hill

Bring the kids to the OBF Parade, a classic celebration going back to The Hills Shire’s roots.

Cheer on the parade as community groups, local performers, and colourful floats take over Main Street. The Parade will end in Market Square, which will be packed with family friendly entertainment, including performances from local dance groups and special guests – PAW Patrol!

FREE activities on the day include face painting, gardening workshops and an OBF-themed photobooth to capture the day’s celebrations.

A dedicated ‘Secret Garden’ space will be available for neurodivergent attendees seeking a quiet area to retreat to during the event.
