Our annual Hello Koalas Festival is the WORLD’S FIRST festival celebrating Australia’s best-loved animal, the koala.

It’s free to follow the Trail.  A large number of our 90 Hello Koalas sculptures are in outdoor locations, while others have homes at local businesses and community organisations. 

Here are the Details for 8th Hello Koalas Festival Treasure Hunt – you can register online below or visit Hello Koalas Gift Shop.  

Discover 35 specially selected Hello Koalas sculptures around Greater Port Macquarie plus “The Big Koala, Spirit of All Koalas”(2.5 metres) sponsored by Regional Australia Bank and located at Guulabaa, Place of Koala, Corner of the Oxley Highway and Burrawan Forest Drive, a new visitor attraction in the Cowarra State Forest. 

Please take lots of photos and post on social with the tag #hellokoalas or @hellokoalas to spread the message around koala conservation.

Call in to the Hello Koalas Gallery + Gift Shop when you have ticked off all 35 koalas (or as many as you can) and we will reward you with your personalised Hello Koalas Festival Treasure Hunt Certificate of Achievement, to put on your fridge in pride of place.

The Hello Koalas Gallery + Gift Shop address is 2/ 1A Blackbutt Road, Port Macquarie, just off Lake Road.
