This year Coffs Harbour celebrated 150 years since it was gazetted in 1861.

A community Sesquicentennial Celebration Working Group worked hard to help prepare, coordinate and implement a 12-month Sesquicentennial celebration calendar.

The centrepiece of the celebrations was a Parade and Family Fun Day on November 20 2011.

Many local groups, businesses and individuals created floats for the parade.
