Bringing people to Victoria though regional events
Visit Victora supports regional events through the Regional Events Fund, helping event organisers stage exciting events that bring new visitors to regional destinations – boosting local economies, bringing communities together and raising the profile of the area to a national audience.
In February, the Regional Events Fund supported the delivery of the FIBA Men’s Asia Cup Qualifiers in Gippsland, Vic Open Golf tournament in the Bellarine peninsula and Riverboats Music Festival in Echuca.
Upcoming events in March include the Chillout Festival in Daylesford (6-10 March), Port Fairy Folk Festival (7-10 March) and Phillip Island Pro (17-22 March).
Since the fund was launched in 2016, it has helped support more than 400 events and attracted tens of thousands of visitors to regional Victoria, helping local communities thrive.
