About this event
What to expect
The Glen Aplin Memorial Hall was erected in memory of those from the district who served in World War One and World War Two. Building materials were scarce but the Glen Aplin community volunteers worked with ingenuity and persistence to make bricks with sand from the nearby Severn River.
In 1953 the Hall was opened with a Gala Ball attracting people from far and wide to celebrate and try out the dance floor, the largest in the Granite Belt at that time. The Gala Ball included prizes for the most charmingly dressed lady, the most original fan, the most colourful tie and a balloon waltz!
Since then the Hall has continued to host many community celebrations, weddings, wakes, markets and dances along with sporting and social activities.
Glen Aplin is a close knit community located on the Granite Belt, south of Stanthorpe. The region is famous for its Mediterranean climate, fruit, vegetables, wine and various tourist facilities.
Festival of Small Halls returns to Glen Aplin with Nicole Murray and Old Man Luedecke.
