Events in East Gippsland are about living life to the fullest. We simply provide the excuse for you to have a great time. Indulge in food & wine festivals or visit a local event and join in with seasonal community celebrations. From the skies to the land, mountains to the sea – you must plan to be part of the enthusiastic throng.

Events bring the very best in performance, discussion, creative arts, food, wine, live music and agricultural experiences. Each year across our region over 200 small to large-scale events are held. From spectacular concerts and arts festivals, to international sporting challenges there is plenty for you to see and experience while travelling around our region. Bring your competitive nature as you watch Aussie Rules, cricket or tennis matches. Participate in one of the many fishing events. See how heritage melds with the present or celebrate rural life by mixing with the locals.

A dynamic, region wide events calendar has been developed and is updated regularly, featuring both major and smaller community based events.
