Local Story
March is a big month for our region, with plenty of things happening in and around Geelong.

One of the events I am really looking forward to this month is the Tastes of Central Geelong festival.
This is now in its 12 th year, showcasing the amazing food and hospitality sector in the heart of our region.
Since its inception, Tastes of Central Geelong has been embraced by many local businesses as well as the broader community, and has become an annual highlight on the event calendar.
This year’s program encourages Geelong residents to stay local, eat local and drink local and invites visitors from outside of the region to come and see just how much there is to discover, for seasoned foodies and new food lovers alike.
