Good Friday Public Holiday
- Today is Good Friday, a public holiday. Most South Burnett businesses will either be closed today or operating on restricted hours. Easter Saturday, Sunday and Monday are also public holidays. If you're planning to attend something over this weekend, it would be wise to phone beforehand to check they're not taking an Easter break. Some independent grocers may be operating today. Licenced premises are permitted to sell and supply liquor from 10:00am to midnight in conjunction with a meal today if they decide to open but takeaway sales are not permitted.
Rabbits Eat Lettuce - Stonelands
The long-running Rabbits Eat Lettuce electronic music festival has relocated to the South Burnett this Easter! The five-day event is being held on a 3500 acre private property, "Crystal Springs", on Stonelands Road at Stonelands. As well as heaps of music until 2:00am every night (across four stages), there'll be workshops running from 9:00am to 5:00pm daily, yoga and dance classes and even a roller skating rink! There's glamping available as well as powered sites for vans and RVs. Tickets can be booked online but there's also a 20 per cent discount available for South Burnett residents (show a photo ID with your home address to buy a ticket at the front gate). There'll also be a day parking area for local residents if you don't want to camp overnight onsite.

AA meets in Murgon every Tuesday and Friday at 12:30pm at the Baptist Church at 94 Macalister Street. For more information, phone 1300-222-222.
