It's time to wrap-up another big year and celebrate Team Tourism-style at our highly-anticipated Industry Christmas Party!

Held at Barrabool Maze Estate on 8 Dec, expect drinks, nibbles, mixing and mingling while we celebrate with industry friends and colleagues and toast to an exciting new year to come.

🎁'TIS THE SEASON TO GIVE 🎁

To support kids doing it tough this Christmas, we've partnered with Our Village (formerly Geelong Mums) to collect essential items.

Do you have new or pre-loved children’s items to donate? Drop them off to Tourism Greater Geelong and The Bellarine at City Hall between now and the 8th of December and we'll make sure it gets to Our Village in time to help families, parents and carers. Donations must be clean, in excellent condition, and within Australian safety standards.

We acknowledge that Geelong and The Bellarine is Wadawurrung Country.

We welcome visitors to our region, a place we acknowledge has been cared for by the Wadawurrung people of the Kulin Nation for thousands of years.

The environment is a key reason visitors choose this destination. Traditional Owners sharing the beauty and joy of these lands and waterways is a privilege, one we repay with respect for their country, Elders and people.

You’ll have noticed that we’ve changed ticketing platform recently so 100% of profits from ticket sales goes towards children charities.
