Here's what's on this week in Moonee Valley

Date: Friday 17 April 2026

Location: Recreation Hall, Ground floor, Djerring Flemington Hub (Flemington Community Centre)

This event has two sessions: morning 9.30am – 12.00pm and afternoon 12.30pm – 3.00pm. Please attend the event within the time frame allocated on your ticket. We will not be accepting items between 12.00-12.30pm.

In 2025, textiles made up approximately 13% of contamination in Moonee Valley kerbside recycling bins. Did you know textiles aren’t recyclable in your kerbside recycling bin?

Recycle your textiles for free at our autumn textile recycling event.

By sending these items to specialist recyclers, the material can be reused to make new products. This keeps them in the circular economy — where resources are reused instead of wasted — and reduces the need for new materials.

Attendees must bring all items into the building, staff will not be accepting any items from the car park. Leaving any items in the public area will be considered illegal dumping. If assistance is required, please contact us prior to the event day via recycle@mvcc.vic.gov.au

Please refer to below image for what items are/not accepted.

Items that won’t be accepted:

• unclean textiles
• underwear
• non-textile material
• donatable goods – please take these items to your local charity shop.

If incorrect items are brought to the event, staff have the right to refuse these items.

Registration is essential, limited tickets available, and the event is open to Moonee Valley residents only (please bring proof of address):

• One admission per booking
• One ticket per household

Getting there:

The ANZAC legend was born on 25 April 1915, when some 16,000 soldiers of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) landed under fire on the shores of Gallipoli, Türkiye. The Anzacs landing at Gallipoli helped shape the Australian story.

Their actions during the Gallipoli campaign left a powerful legacy, and their courage and sacrifices are remembered each year with commemorative services across Australia. Council has held its Anzac commemoration ceremonies at the Queens Park Cenotaph since 1929, when it was built.

Join the Mayor of Moonee Valley, councillors, local parliamentarians and the Essendon RSL sub-branch at the Cenotaph in Queens Park as we acknowledge the sacrifices and contributions made by our service men and women and their families.
