Join Omeo's visitor economy through tourism mapping and justice precinct masterplan vision sessions on 14 September 2025
Omeo visitor economy's future will be shaped through community sessions presenting the Tourism Ecosystem Mapping Report and Draft Justice Precinct Masterplan, highlighting heritage, recreation, and opportunities to attract investment.
The future of Omeo's visitor economy is set to take an exciting step forward, with the community invited to help shape the vision at a special presentation and drop-in session later this month. The Future of the Omeo Visitor Economy presentation will showcase two major economic development projects: the Omeo Tourism Ecosystem Mapping Report and the Draft Justice Precinct Masterplan.
Join East Gippsland Council to explore two key economic projects: Omeo Ecosystem Mapping Report and Justice Precinct Draft Masterplan. RSVP by 14 September 2025
Planning Omeo together
The Ecosystem Mapping Report provides a roadmap for tourism growth, spotlighting heritage and outdoor recreation as key strengths. The Draft Justice Precinct Masterplan takes a closer look at one of Omeo's most significant heritage assets, exploring how the precinct can be reimagined as a vibrant hub for cultural, civic and visitor experiences.
This is more than an opportunity to hear from the council - it's about shaping Omeo's next chapter together. The sessions are designed to listen to the community, capture local aspirations, and find practical ways to turn them into action. By aligning big-picture strategy with community ideas, these projects have the potential to unlock investment, activate heritage spaces and strengthen Omeo's role as a gateway to the High Country.
Shaping Omeo's future
The community is invited to attend the presentation on Thursday 18 September from 5.30 pm to 7.00 pm at the Omeo Community Hub, with light catering and refreshments provided. For those unable to make the evening session, an informal drop-in will be held the following morning from 9.30 am to 11.30 am at the Omeo Community Hub.
Please RSVP by 5.00 pm, Sunday 14 September to Humanitix event website. For more information, visit council's website or contact the Economic Development team.
