For three months, from the start of September through to the end of November, the city's social calendar is chock-a-block with events.

Last weekend was Spring Jam, which has gone from strength-to-strength since being rebranded and relocated from the civic precinct in 2018.

This weekend is Gears and Beers, which has proved phenomenally successful since its inception in 2014.

And the weekend after next plays host to Fusion - my personal favourite - which gets bigger and better with each instalment.

Throw in the Ag Races and Picnic Races and Devour and a whole host of markets, fairs and exhibitions and it truly is a wonderful time to live in, or around, Wagga.

All the best for the week ahead - and go the Riverina Raiders!
