Events
Geelong Connected Communities [GCC] recognises the positive effect that local events have on the Geelong Community. Local events have an ability to showcase our region, encourage visitors, increase community morale, and celebrate our diverse and unique community whilst boosting the local economy.
Our Event Sponsorships are provided to assist with the running and development of community events, activities and festivals.
Avalon Airport is the Program Partner for Geelong Connected Communities Events Grants.
