Lifeline Bookfest and $2.00 Clothing Sale Rockhampton
24-25 May 2024
Our websites
Bookfest is back in Rocky!
Lifeline Queensland’s beloved Rockhampton Bookfest is back for another year (with a sneaky little $2 clothing sale along for the ride). Lose yourself in the tables upon tables of pre-loved books and clothing.
Dive into some great second-hand reads from as little 20 cents each. Whether it’s Australiana, cookbooks or sci-fi, you’re sure to find something to float your boat. Plus, there are DVDs and puzzles. And it’s all for a good cause – funds raised go towards our 13 11 14 Lifeline Crisis Support Line. By purchasing books – and clothes – at Lifeline Bookfest Rockhampton, you are helping us to save lives, and we can’t thank you enough.
This event is proudly supported by Rockhampton Regional Council.
