Visitor Information Centres (VICs) are a vital ingredient in the success of Victoria’s tourism industry. They play a significant role in enriching the visitor experience, contribute to regional dispersal and often increase the length of stay and dollars that visitors spend in a destination.
Open seven days a week, Victoria’s accredited Visitor Information Centres are staffed by friendly, professional and trained people with extensive local knowledge. They offer a broad range of services from accommodation and tour booking services, to local product sales and event ticketing. On Saturday September 11, Visitor Information Centres around the state are opening their doors for locals and tourism businesses alike to spend some time with their local VIC and discover the wide range of visitor services they provide. From Ambassador programs to attraction showcases, find out how your local VIC are helping people discover the best things about your local area. They are a great first step to finding out how your destination is promoted and a chance to get out and about in your own backyard.
We hope you will attend the Yarra Valley Visitor Information Centre’s Open Day on September 11. We are proudly being supported by Healesville Rotary and will be offering a sausage sizzle between 12pm-3pm.
