Future Events 4 Winchelsea Forum Set for 11 August 2025
Showcasing 48 Years of Grassroots Success
The highly anticipated Future Events 4 Winchelsea Forum will take place on Monday, 11 August 2025 at Eastern Reserve Winchelsea, bringing together community organisations, key stakeholders, and interested community members for an inspiring and practical evening focused on shaping the future of local events.
One of the key highlights will be the extraordinary story of a small, volunteer-run community event that began 48 years ago and has since grown into a major annual attraction, drawing over 22,000 visitors. This enduring success is a testament to the power of community spirit, resilience, and local innovation.
"This is more than just an event planning forum," said John Tebbutt, President of Growing Winchelsea. "It’s a celebration of what small towns can achieve with passion, creativity, and collective effort. Winchelsea has an incredible story to tell with its unique character — let's put our town on the map."
The forum will feature guest speakers providing practical information and valuable insights into how a small community works in harmony, networking opportunities, a brainstorming session designed to provide a starting point for future events to support the sustainability and growth of Winchelsea and District.
The Future Events 4 Winchelsea Forum is a community led initiative proudly supported by Community Bank, Winchelsea & District and is designed to strengthen the future of community events. By sharing real-world stories and proven strategies, the forum will aim to empower the community to create events that engage, inspire, and grow over time providing fun ways to connect the community and build lasting friendships.
