Why Geelong & Why Business Events Geelong?

Here is what Geelong has to offer:

Geelong is a city of natural delights, unexpected experiences and incredible food and wine.

From the stunning waterfront and urban precinct to the craft breweries and award winning wineries, world famous golf courses, and the city’s old industrial landscape reclaimed and reshaped into incredible restaurant, drinking and event venues. Geelong and The Bellarine has it all and more!

Bayside frolics

Get a dose of sunshine with a stroll along the waterfront, taking in public artworks and landscaped gardens. Marvel at the art deco-style pool and kick back in the promenade complex and restored pavilion at Eastern Beach. Sign up for an eco-adventure tour, use it as a base to explore the famous Geelong wine region, or take your pick from a wide range of adrenaline-charged activities.

Wine, Dine, Craftbeer & Gin

Stop in at one of Geelong and The Bellarine’s 40-odd regional cellar doors that are open for tasting, and sample from a diverse range of wines. There are a number of wineries with onsite restaurants, where you can unwind and take in the scenery over a sumptuous meal with perfectly matched wine.

Looking to mix up the wine tasting? Little Creatures, Anther Distillery, The Whiskery and Flying Brick Cider House will welcome you in to discover and experience the finest in Cider, Craft Beer, Gin and Whisky. When you come to Geelong, we can guarantee a good time, a full time and a fun time, because we really do have it all.

Art and Heritage

Discover the wealth of public art works along the waterfront from the whimsical Baywalk Bollards to the iconic Shark Fins and Cargo Boxes. The sculpted bollards chronicle characters from the city’s past and present, including dapper young ladies in neck-to-knee bathing costumes, 1930s lifesavers, traditional Aussie families and jaunty sailors.

Explore the city’s 100 National Trust listed buildings, delve into the region’s history at the National Wool Museum, and you are never too old to take a ride on the historic wooden carousel. Art lovers will enjoy the outstanding collection of Australian paintings, sculpture and decorative arts at the Geelong Art Gallery.

Come together

With a packed calendar of events celebrating everything from sport, music, film and theatre to food, wine and community activities, there’s always plenty going on. Host a your gala dinner within GMHBA’s AFL stadium which overlooks the AFL grounds. Stay the weekend and discover AFL action in real life as the cats take to the field. Looking for a team building experience? Why not swim with the seals and the dolphins in Queenscliff, only a short 20 minute drive down The Bellarine. There is always something to do, see and experience in and around Geelong.
