The ImagiNation Children’s Festival is Logan City Council’s free, family festival at the Kingston Butter Factory Cultural Precinct, a full day of activities, workshops and entertainment for kids aged 0 to 12. The day is split into six themed worlds, and kids can collect stamps in a passport for a chance to win a prize pack.
The next date has not been announced yet. The last edition was on Saturday 18 April 2026, from 9 am to 3 pm, and the festival is usually held on a Saturday in autumn.
ImagiNation Children’s Festival dates
The last ImagiNation Children’s Festival was on Saturday 18 April 2026, from 9 am to 3 pm. Logan City Council has not announced the next one yet, so no date is given here until it does.
It is an outdoor event, so it is worth checking the council’s page the week before you go in case of a weather change.
Cost and who it is for
Entry is free. The festival is designed for children aged 0 to 12, and it is a family day, so parents and carers come along too. Logan City Council runs it, and the council’s festival page has the full program for each edition.
The six worlds
Kids explore six themed worlds: nature, creative, digital, cultural, entertainment and action. Each world has its own activities, and the last edition included a dinosaur discovery dig, bubble and slime workshops, dance classes and a magic mirror photo booth. There are also competitions and entertainment through the day.
The ImagiNation Kids Passport
Children can collect stamps in an ImagiNation Kids Passport on the day for a chance to win a prize pack. Pick up the passport at the festival and keep it handy as you move between the worlds.
Food, rules and what to bring
Food trucks are on site. The festival is pet-free and alcohol-free, so leave the dog at home.
Where it is and getting there
The festival is held at the Kingston Butter Factory Cultural Precinct, 270 Jacaranda Avenue, Kingston. Kingston is about 25 km from the Brisbane CBD, about 30 minutes by car without traffic. Check the council’s festival page for parking and transport advice before the day, as the council publishes them for each edition.
The precinct is a year-round place to visit too: see our Kingston Butter Factory guide for the museum, theatre and tea house.
