Since it is a festival, it's a collection of events over a designated period of time. In this case, the Easter long weekend.
Some of these events are actually on annually, such as the Riggs Cup. Some are on over a greater period of time, such as the Penny Paniz Acquisitive Arts Exhibition which is running for six weeks this year. Some are on every week, such as Parkrun every Saturday.
Some of the events however, are run especially for the Leeton SunRice Festival, such as the Easter Saturday street parade, the charity fundraising ambassadors, and Leeton's Longest Lunch which makes a welcome return on Easter Sunday in 2024.

The first event on the 2024 schedule is the Masquerade Cocktail Party from 6pm on Thursday March 28. The festival ambassadors will introduce themselves, and local band Remedy will be providing the entertainment.
In the early mornings from Good Friday to Easter Monday, and the evenings of Good Friday and Easter Saturday, the Supagas Hot Air Balloon Fiesta will take to the sky (weather permitting).
Easter Saturday also has the Festival on Mountford, and the Ambassador Awards.
The new urban sketching workshops are on Easter Sunday morning, then later will be the twilight markets and the colourful Balloon Glow performance.
Easter Monday then has the open gardens and the Riggs Cup.
