Transforming Nagambie and Euroa into a winter wonderland

23 May 2022

Strathbogie Shire Council is transforming Jacobson’s Outlook in Nagambie and the old Gambles Nursery Site in Euroa into a winter wonderland this June.

Council, Go Nagambie and the Euroa Chamber of Business and Commerce are creating family friendly events that will bring ice skating to Strathbogie Shire.

Strathbogie Shire Council Mayor, Cr Laura Binks, said the free events were made possible after Council received Victorian Government funding through the Outdoor Activation Fund.

“We then asked our community what they would like to see, and we heard that fun, family friendly, events were the priority,” Cr Binks said.

“We’re also hoping to include live music and there will be a virtual reality Swiss Alps activity, hot chocolate, mulled wine, photobooths, snow play and much more.”

The Winter Wonderland includes an ice-skating rink, set up with inflatable surrounds, skates, helmets, penguin trolleys for smaller children and experts to fit the skates and give instruction.

A booking system has been established so locals and visitors can all enjoy the fun.

The Winter Wonderland will be held in:

  • Nagambie on June 11 from 11am to 7pm and June 12 from 11am to 4pm at Jacobson’s Outlook, High Street Nagambie.
  • Euroa on June 18 from 11am to 7pm and June 19 from 11am to 4pm at the old Gambles Nursery Site from 11am to 4pm.
