Colac Otway Emergency Events - January 2026
LET’S TALK Colac invites the community to the 2025 Walk the Walk Festival — a 12 or 24-hour walking event held at the Colac Showgrounds with a festival atmosphere, live music, food vans, wellbeing stalls, and a kids’ zone.
Participants can register as individuals or in teams and choose either a 12-hour or 24-hour challenge. Teams are encouraged to get creative with themed costumes, custom batons, and decorated marquees. Entry is free, and all funds raised will support mental health programs in the region.
The public is invited to attend, cheer on walkers, and enjoy the entertainment for a gold coin donation.
Register prior to 12th September and go in the Draw to Win an Holiday from Melbourne to Adelaide on the Overlander (meals included) and return flights. Courtesy of Warrnambool Travel
