Celebrate Neighbour Day with a free cuppa with the people who make your street feel like home.
Building strong, connected neighbourhoods starts with something simple - a friendly hello, a shared conversation, or a moment over a warm drink. As part of National Neighbour Day 2026, council is once again hosting free “Cuppa with Your Neighbour” events right across the Mackay region!
Whether you’re hoping to finally meet the people you wave to from the driveway, or you want to celebrate the legends who live next door, these events are all about bringing our community together.
Good neighbours make safer, happier communities. These events encourage:
Even small moments of connection can make a big difference - and it all starts with a cuppa.
Bring a friend, bring a neighbour - or meet one for the first time.
Together, let’s celebrate the everyday people who help make our streets welcoming places to live.
