After a lifechanging experience as an Ambassador in 2024’s monumental Burdekin Water Festival, Sasha Previtera has made the decision to join this year’s Burdekin Water Festival Committee to continue one of the community’s most treasured traditions.
“After such an amazing experience last year, I knew I wanted to stay involved in a meaningful way,” explained Sasha.
“Throughout last year’s festival, I saw how much heart goes into every event and how willing people are to come together to create something special - it really opened my eyes to the deep sense of community we have here, and I feel so lucky to be part of it.”
Alongside another former Ambassador, Sasha has undertaken the role of Social Media Manager for the event, and she cannot wait to bring 2025’s theme of Bon Voyage: Roam the Globe to life online.
“I’m especially looking forward to showcasing the creativity of the community, the Ambassador journey, and the fun, vibrant energy that makes this event so special - all whilst supporting the new Ambassadors through a different lens.”
In 2024, the Burdekin Water Festival made its triumphant return to the region following on from its unfortunate absence the year prior, and after witnessing the perseverance of the newly formed Committee, Sasha knew this was something she wanted to be part of.
“The dedication from both the Committee, Ambassadors and the wider community to bring back the Water Festival was inspiring - it truly showed how much this event means to everyone involved.”
With Burdekin Water Festival Grand Parade and Mardi Gras set for the 6th of September, Sasha hopes the idea of becoming an Ambassador has crossed the minds of many within the region.
“As an ambassador, I gained so much confidence in my ability to connect with others, represent my community, and speak publicly and it was such a rewarding experience that helped shape who I am today,” Sasha recalled.

“If you’re even slightly considering entering - just go for it,” added Sasha.
“Don’t let fear hold you back as this is your chance to be part of something truly special.”
