To recognise the significance of the 150th anniversary, it is only fitting that the celebrations be extended to a one-off four day program in 2022.

There are some important changes to the days and times of your favourite events due to these celebrations. Here are the key changes you need to know:

• Bendigo Advertiser Gala Parade is moving to Monday April 18 at 12.30pm
• Sherridon Homes Torchlight Procession will now be on Sunday April 17 at 7pm
• Awakening of the Dragon will be on Sunday April 17 at 2pm
• Rotary Markets will be changed to Friday April 15 and Monday April 18, from 9am – 4pm

Rosalind Park will still be full of entertainment and activities for the whole family to enjoy from 10am – 5pm, from Friday through to Monday.
