Live local love this winter

After a wonderful summer of community support for our merchants, we are extending our Live Love Local campaign into the winter months, as local businesses continue to cope and strive to recover from the disruptions of COVID-19.

Eat and drink

Our merchants have been busy preparing their outdoor dining spaces for the winter, with support from the Victoria Council and Government. Additional shelter, heaters and lighting have recently been installed in your favorite local cafes, restaurants and bars, to help you get the most out of alfresco dining, even when the temperature drops.

Are you feeling decadent? Discover our Dessert First contest! With 60 sweet treats on the menu across our City, we encourage you to treat yourself this winter. You could even win a stay at the Prince Hotel as well as prizes from the Starward Distillery, simply by taking a photo of your dessert and posting it on social media to enter our contest. For more details, visit Dessert first.

Want to go out ? Get comfortable and head to one of the many restaurants offering al fresco dining this winter. Or grab a nightstand inside; you can find places with a fireplace by searching on the Australia’s Guide to Good Food and Travel Website.

Want to dine there? There is a long list of places that continue to offer take out food throughout the winter season. Whether you’re craving a Sunday roast or something a little more exotic, follow your favorite spots on social media for their latest deals. And ordering takeout or direct deliveries when possible (rather than through a food delivery service app) means the total cost you pay goes straight to the business. You can call to check with your locals if they are delivering to you.

Out and about

theatrical works
