Big cities can easily lose a sense of the seasons. As a regional centre, Launceston remains firmly connected to the wealth of its agricultural, river valley and marine communities.

Which means Launceston not only has everything other Australian cities have to offer: theatre, dance, shopping, AFL football and symphony concerts (without the queues!), but also uniquely local festivals and events (many of national repute), reflecting the ebb and flow of regional life in a temperate climate.

So, get seasonal! Help plan your visit by the calendar. Or, have four different short breaks, in spring, summer, autumn or winter.
