The 2010 Australia Day Family Celebration & Fireworks!
The Town of Bassendean welcomed family and friends to its annual Australia Day celebrations at Ashfield Reserve yesterday. Great food, great music and spectacular fireworks resulted in the 2010 event being one of the biggest to date for the active local council.
Approximately 20,000 people turned up to celebrate being proud Australians at this free community event. The popular event was full of entertainment and fun with a fantastic family friendly atmosphere.
James Wilson’s performance was a definite crowd pleaser. James is a unique performer, moulding popular songs from all eras and genres with his extraordinary stage set up. A multi-instrumental soloist, his performance incorporated acoustic guitar, vocals, percussion, didge and harmonica.
Renegade delivered a rocking performance of country classics and re-worked, ‘country-fried’ pop/rock favourites. Their fun-filled set got the crowd up and dancing and ready for the sensational fireworks display.
The event also included a citizenship ceremony and presentation of the Premier’s Australia Day Active Citizenship Awards.
