Official Southern Grampians Shire celebrations invite everyone in the community to take a moment to reflect on, share, and honour the stories and experiences that bring people together across the region. These events are an opportunity to acknowledge the many contributions made by individuals from all walks of life - celebrating the diverse histories, cultures and perspectives that make up the fabric of the Southern Grampians.

Whether you are new to the area or have long-standing ties to the community, these celebrations are designed to be welcoming and inclusive, offering a chance to connect with neighbours, learn from one another and appreciate the values and experiences that enrich daily life in our region.
