With strong winds and showers forecast for the weekend, council and stakeholders have made the difficult decision to postpone SPARK! Wood Street.
The SPARK! Wood Street event was set to “pop up” as a dynamic activation of the old cinema car park on Wood and Gordon streets from this Friday, May 9, to next Friday, May 16.
Unfortunately, the festivities were mostly centred around the Friday, Saturday and Sunday (May 9 to 11) and the Bureau of Meteorology has forecast a strong wind warning during that period.
The event is expected to be rescheduled for a weekend in June, however, residents are encouraged to follow the Mackay City and Waterfront Facebook page for new dates and updates.
Council apologises for any inconvenience and looks forward to reigniting SPARK! in a few weekends time.
