Country Change update | February 2025

Country Change has begun 2025 with a bang, featuring the Murray River and Temora LGAs in January and following that up with Griffith and Narrandera in February. Next up, we have Berrigan Shire featured in March. Make sure you don’t miss out on the great stories we’re showcasing by signing up to the Country Change newsletter.

On February 13 representatives from 15 member LGAs got together with RDA Riverina and Laticia from Blue Clay to discuss the exciting opportunities planned for 2025.

Amongst the usual activities of highlighting the Riverina and Murray regions and why they are such fantastic places to live, there are plans to hold another Country Change Expo, building on the success of last year’s Riverina Discovery Weekend and Country Change Expo. While the exact timing and location of the expo is yet to be determined, we can’t wait to welcome more potential relocators to our region.

Another exciting development for 2025 is Country Change’s involvement in the Sydney Film Festival as an advertising partner of Sydney Film Festival TV. Our films will be shown in Martin Place in Sydney’s CBD over the 12 day festival, which coincides with Vivid Sydney and the King’s Birthday long weekend.

Finally, Country Change is planning a regional photography and videography tour to capture some fresh imagery and footage to add to our extensive collection and help us to keep producing quality content.
