Wyndham City is thrilled that Werribee is a finalist in the 2025 Victorian Top Tourism Town Awards for the fourth year running.
Wyndham City Mayor Cr Mia Shaw, said: “I’m delighted that Werribee continues to be recognised as one of Victoria’s top tourism destinations. I encourage everyone to vote and for all of Wyndham to show their support. Voting only takes a minute and by doing so, you’ll be supporting our amazing tourism operators and local businesses.”
Public voting is now open (worth 10 per cent of each town’s total score), and the Wyndham community is being encouraged to get behind Werribee. Wyndham City submitted an application which included a four-day itinerary with suggestions on what to do, where to stay and places to eat in Werribee.
Presented by the Victoria Tourism Industry Council (VTIC), these awards recognise towns that deliver amazing visitor experiences, show strong commitment to growing visitation to their destination, and exhibit collaboration with tourism operators, local businesses and the community.
Werribee is competing in the category for towns with a population over 5,000 – other finalists include Ballarat, Bendigo, Echuca, Lakes Entrance, Mildura, Shepparton, Swan Hill and Warrnambool. Winners will be announced in July and progress to the national awards for a chance to be crowned Australia’s Top Tourism Town.
“Tourism is a vital part of Wyndham’s economy. Taking home gold in the Top Tourism Town Awards would help build awareness and drive visitation for our region, while shining a light on the incredible work of our local businesses.” Cr Shaw said.
