ADDRESS.
Colac Showgrounds are located on the corner of Bruce street and Princess highway [also known as Murray street] Colac, approximately a 2 hour drive from Melbourne, 1 hour south of Ballarat, 1 ½ hours east of Warrnambool and 1 hour west of Geelong. A shuttle will be running from accommodation points to the Colac Showgrounds and railway station. We ask that you use the shuttle as there are limited parking options in Warrion. We encourage carpooling.
THERE IS NO NEED TO CHANGE ACCOMMODATION BECAUSE OF VENUE CHANGE - A BUS WILL STILL BE RUNNING FROM ACCOMMODATION POINTS TO THE COLAC SHOWGROUNDS
