Council invites you to join us to celebrate and honour local achievements at our annual Australia Day ceremonies in St Arnaud and Stawell on Monday, January 26. There are also partner events across the shire in townships such as Navarre, Stuart Mill and Marnoo.
This policy provides event organisers, community groups and council staff with an understanding of Northern Grampians Shire Council’s direction and objectives regarding the delivery and support of community, tourism and council events. The policy aims to clarify the roles and responsibilities of all parties and ensure events held within the shire are compliant with council's requirements.
