The Easter Bunny will be just one of many exciting attractions at this year’s Easter Fair at Aubin Grove Reserve, 3-7pm on Easter Saturday 4 April.
Apart from the fluffy chocolate egg-loving rabbit, locals will be captivated by 2025 WA Country Music Awards Female Artist of the Year, Pop Country artist Claudia Tripp who will perform a selection of her catchy original tunes.
The free event will again combine with the Aubin Grove Community Association’s (AGCA) Twilight Market, first established eight years ago in the developing Cockburn suburb.
It will be the third consecutive year the City has collaborated with AGCA to stage a bumper fair boasting an array of egg-cellent markets featuring handcrafted arts and craft, gift ideas and fresh produce.
Live music and roving entertainers, Easter craft and facepainting, inflatable slides and obstacle course, demonstrations and displays by Jandakot Volunteer Bush Fire Brigade plus a range of delicious food vendors will ensure a memorable feel-good experience for all.
City of Cockburn Mayor Logan Howlett said it was a pleasure to provide the community a high-quality, affordable celebration over the Easter weekend.
“Our community comes out in force to support the City’s events, which are part of the extensively varied and popular 2025-2026 Cockburn LIVE program,” Mayor Howlett said.
“The Easter Fair is a tradition for many families and it’s heartwarming to give members of the community and opportunity to gather to make new memories and strengthen connections.”
Aubin Grove Community Association President Geoff Webb said the Easter Fair was greatly anticipated by the local community.
“Everybody is still talking about last year’s huge event and asking if we are going ahead again. It was absolutely brilliant in 2025 and we’re busily preparing for an even bigger and better Fair on 4 April,” Mr Webb said.
"While Easter is a busy time for many, this event has grown into a beloved and affordable family tradition, attracting over 6,000 attendees last year.
“This success builds on the strong foundation of our previous years’ efforts and continues to bring our communities together.
“We have a great partnership with the City of Cockburn to stage this large event which helps our market raise more funds to continue funding projects that improve the local environment.
“It allows us to continue investing in equipment to help us rehabilitate parts of Banksia Woodland Reserve, particularly weeding and hopefully some planting out this winter.
“We’ve completed projects at various Aubin Grove parklands including installing a purple bench with the Centre for Women’s Safety and Wellbeing, revegetation efforts including planting more trees, and upgrading barbecue and shade areas.”
The event is a waste-wise, carbon neutral event. Find out more on the City’s
