Help shape our arts, festivals and events calendar

People who live, work and play in the City of Whittlesea are invited to have their say on what Council's arts, festivals and events calendar should look like in 2022.

Council is inviting feedback and ideas via an online survey on what types of events and activities people would like to see - such as exhibitions, community festivals and concerts - at different venues across all parts of the City of Whittlesea.

Chair Administrator Lydia Wilson said the City of Whittlesea was proud of its diverse events program and was keen to hear the community's ideas on what else could be included, for when people are able to get out more.

"Our events calendar is designed to get the community out and having fun when we're safely able to, and we want to make sure we're including the right mix of events so there is something everyone can access and enjoy," Ms Wilson said.

"While we're unable to run in-person events because of lockdowns at the moment, we're using this time to really evaluate our program so we can have a bigger and better program in 2022 and beyond.

"Council is proud of its vibrant and rich arts and cultural events calendar, and we're looking forward to hearing community members' ideas on how we can enrich it further.

"It might be live music, food stalls, community festivals, come-and-try workshops or children's entertainment - tell us what local events in the City of Whittlesea you would enjoy going to the most."

Residents can have their say on Council's events calendar by completing an online survey at engage.whittlesea.vic.gov.au until Friday 10 September.
