Event Planning Webinar Series
Macedon Ranges, Pyrenees and Northern Grampians Shire Councils collaborated with regional tourism and event expert Linda Tillman to create a folio of event planning webinars and support tools for local event organisers.
The series comprises six in-depth webinars with accompanying resources and four bite-sized recordings, all designed to assist local events in streamlining their event planning and approval processes.
