Murphys Creek Chilli Festival

Each year in September, Murphys Creek celebrates fire and flavour in the Lockyer Valley with a chilli festival. Enjoy over 60 chilli-themed vendors and international food trucks serving fresh food with gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan options. There will be 100 products to sample and shop and fresh food trucks with cooling drinks. Murphys Creek is a one-hour, 30-minute drive west of Brisbane along the Warrego Highway, turning right at Withcott. It sits below the Great Dividing range. It’s also an easy 25-minute drive from Toowoomba’s CBD via the scenic route north through Highfields and down the range.
