Emma Memma returns to
Award-winning artist Emma Memma will perform at the Orange Blossom Festival for the first time in 19 years to headline the return of the OBF Night Markets on Saturday 7 September at Castle Hill Showground .
It ’ s a triumphant return for the national treasure , who previously starred as Pippa the Orange in the 2005 edition of OBF , long before she became globally recognised as Emma Wiggle . High energy performances from DJs and acrobatic extraordinaire Dauntless Movement Crew will also take to the stage on the night .
Mayor of The Hills Shire Dr Peter Gangemi said he was delighted to welcome Emma Memma back to The Hills .
“ Emma Memma is adored by millions of children around the world and we ’ re incredibly lucky to welcome her back to the OBF stage for the first time since 2005 ,” Mayor Gangemi said .
“ From humble beginnings as OBF icon Pippa the Orange , she ’ s now a global icon whose use of sign language has made children ’ s entertainment more inclusive and welcoming to children with hearing impairments .
“ The OBF Night Markets will include all the crowd favourites including fireworks , rides and of course the Aussie
Night Markets food trucks so I strongly encourage The Hills community to come along to this wonderful event .”
Emma said she couldn ’ t wait to dazzle thousands of families with her fabulously fun show .
“ I ’ m so excited to be back in The Hills Shire for OBF 2024 and twirl with everyone alongside my dear friend , BB Butterfly ! There will be lots of dancing , singing and sign language and we can ’ t wait for all the children to join us ,” Emma said .
Attendees are encouraged to catch public transport to Hills Showground Metro Station , which is conveniently located next to Castle Hill Showground .
The OBF Night Markets is the first of three main events this year , with the OBF Parade on Saturday 21 September at Rouse Hill Town Centre and the brandnew food and wine event , OBF Taste of Wisemans , on Sunday 29 September at Wisemans Ferry Park .
A range of community-run events will also be held throughout September in association with Orange Blossom Festival .
