Events strategy
The Tweed Events Strategy 2024-2028(PDF, 5MB) guides the sustainable growth, development, and delivery of events that are the right-fit for the region and uniquely Tweed. This means they celebrate our lifestyle and culture, align with our community values, and showcase the Tweed’s hero experiences.
The Tweed is at an exciting stage of maturity as an attractive and sustainable event destination, building on its natural strengths by attracting and support events that align with our community’s and destination’s values.
The Events Strategy Snapshot(, 0B) outlines the experiences we celebrate and events we welcome.
