As the Daylesford & Macedon Ranges region’s tourism board, one of our key responsibilities is to support of the tourism industry. During this quite surreal time, this is more important than ever. We are communicating the latest advice frequently via email. You can subscribe to our emails further down this page. We have uploaded the content of these emails below. We are always here to support anyone involved in the region’s visitor economy so don’t hesitate to get in touch.
I daresay you have heard of the Regional Travel Vouchers Program. This is a State Government initiative, to drive travel demand into regional Victoria. It is designed to be very simple, with no onus on operators, other than the need to provide receipts. You may receive questions from people, so we’ve tried to distil the facts into a list.

Hooray! After being forced to cancel the winter and spring mag’s, we have just produced what is, without doubt, our best mag yet. Thanks to the team for producing, all contributing authors, all businesses who got involved in the competition and articles, and above all, the advertisers. We can’t afford to produce this without advertising support and I’m absolutely sure that those who invested in the magazine will see a great ROI.
I hope that the regional visitation is enough to keep the till turning over. Visitation in the last few weeks has been reasonably good based on conversations I have had with a few of you. As mentioned previously, we are running a regional social marketing campaign which seems to be tracking well. But regional visitation is not enough.
