What's On in Geelong

About events in Geelong

Geelong has a laid-back charm that balances coastal ease with a growing creative energy. Sitting on the edge of Corio Bay, it offers us a mix of waterfront walks, heritage buildings and lively laneways filled with cafes and street art. The city is known for its strong community spirit, with locals and visitors gathering for everything from food festivals and farmers’ markets to live music and theatre. Art galleries, breweries and family-friendly spaces make it easy for everyone to find something that feels welcoming.

Getting to Geelong is straightforward. We can take the V/Line train from Southern Cross for a scenic trip just over an hour, or drive down the Princes Freeway. Those who fancy a more leisurely journey might opt for the ferry from Docklands, taking in the bay views along the way. Once there, most venues and attractions are within easy reach, whether we’re keen to explore the foreshore or delve into a laneway bar.
