We work with events, councils, not-for-profits and community organisations of all shapes and sizes across regional and rural Australia.
Our work looks different for every client, but the goal is always the same: to build stronger, more sustainable events that create real value for their communities.
Below are some examples of how we work alongside regional event organisers and the outcomes they are achieving with our support.
Eurobodalla Shire Council engaged with the Signature Program to rethink how it supports volunteer-led events in a more strategic and sustainable way, particularly in a cash-constrained regional environment.
The program helped strengthen the council’s approach to event funding and assessment, while also improving transparency, streamlining processes, and sharpening its understanding of sponsorship, income streams and community outcomes.
Orange360 partnered with the Australian Centre for Regional Events to deliver its Annual Events Bootcamp, helping local organisers build the skills, systems and confidence needed to create stronger regional events.
The program supported the region’s strategic focus on growing sustainable festivals and events, with participants gaining practical tools in planning, audience experience, communication, and long-term financial and operational resilience.
Queensland Country Tourism partnered with the Australian Centre for Regional Events to deliver a tailored 12-month program designed to strengthen the competitiveness, professionalism and long-term sustainability of regional events across the region.
Through training, mentoring and strategic planning support, participating events gained stronger foundations in marketing, governance, visitor experience, succession planning and community partnerships, helping them build more resilient and impactful events for the future.
Through the Regional Event Leadership Program and Eventfolk support, Alice Springs Town Council developed a more strategic, values-led approach to event planning, assessment and community support.
The work helped strengthen internal processes, improve transparency and consistency for organisers, and shift Council’s role towards building long-term community capacity rather than ongoing operational delivery.
Through the Regional Event Leadership Program, Baw Baw Shire Council gained greater clarity around its event priorities and a more consistent, strategic approach to planning and support.
The program also helped build stronger internal alignment across council, reinforcing the value of events and their role in delivering meaningful outcomes for organisers, communities and the broader region.
Ord Valley Events is the community-driven organisation behind the iconic Ord Valley Muster, a flagship East Kimberley event that celebrates the region’s cultural richness, landscapes and talent while supporting tourism and economic activity.
Through strategic planning support, the organisation gained a practical long-term roadmap that aligned the Board, stakeholders and delivery team around clear priorities, stronger systems and sustainable growth for the future.
The Gracetown Kite Festival brings locals and visitors together each year to celebrate art, community and the coastal environment.
Through the Regional Event Management Signature Program, organiser Elizabeth Reed gained the strategy, confidence and tools to strengthen the festival’s long-term sustainability, improve its digital presence, and shape a scalable event model now being applied in both Gracetown and a new regional event in Geraldton.
Since launching in 2016, the Esk Garden Fair has grown into a much-loved community event in the heart of Esk.
Through the Destination Elevate program, the committee strengthened its strategic planning, embraced new technology and more professional systems, and built greater confidence in delivering a successful, sustainable event with stronger community and business support.
