The place to explore

Village life and space for living. Our towns have evolved with the needs of our communities, working with the natural beauty of the environment to provide opportunities for recreation and reflection.

Events

Events in the country have their own spirit and charm. Corangamite Shire holds and supports a wide range of community, youth, cultural and sporting events every year. Check out our events calendar here.

We are less renowned and more quietly proud of the pop-up style arts and cultural events that bring people together to celebrate who we are, where we live and demonstrate how a sense of place inspires artistic expression.
