Qube Truck Pull and Festival to be filled with fun activities.

Qube truck pull fundraising

Teams of 25 will put their muscles to the test when they use their might to try and pull a 70-tonne truck in the fastest time at the inaugural Qube Truck Pull and Festival in Bunbury’s Bicentennial Square this Saturday.

And while the truck-pulling spectacle is set to be the main event on the day, it won’t be the only attraction at the festival.

People are encouraged to enjoy the food, markets, displays, entertainment and children’s activities on offer at the free event from 10am, and also take up the opportunity to have a complimentary health check.

Following the truck pulling contest, there will be a presentation of prizes to the fastest team, highest team fundraiser, highest individual fundraiser, lightest team and most creative team.
