ChillOut Festival 2015
ChillOut is dedicated to celebrating gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer pride within the unique setting of regional Victoria. It’s all part of the celebration of diversity, with friends and family, combined with our love for this beautiful part of Victoria – that is ChillOut. Come and enjoy!
The Management Committee aims to achieve the following:
- The festival and its associated events are responsive to and representative of the interests of gay and lesbian and related communities, including friends and families. Our focus is on highlighting gay and lesbian arts and culture and other events in a relaxed, country setting and on introducing visitors to experiences unique to our region.
- ChillOut will continue to grow its importance in the community by raising a meaningful donation to a nominated charity or worthy cause each year.
- Festival organisers will work with the local community and festival participants to deliver a welcoming, safe and healthy environment during ChillOut.
- The organisation will operate in a financially sound manner aiming to return an improved positive cash position to ChillOut at the end of each financial year.
- The Management Committee will apply sound business management practices to ensure the long-term viability, growth and good reputation of ChillOut.
From humble beginnings, ChillOut has grown to become the biggest and longest-running Country Queer Pride event in regional Australia, and the largest festival in Hepburn Shire. While events in the capital cities might be a lot bigger, ChillOut retains a relaxed, down-to-earth atmosphere with plenty of opportunities to let your hair down, and has found a special place in the hearts of gay men and lesbians across Australia – and the world.
Over its fourteen year history, ChillOut has raised more than $200,000 for local charities, worthy causes and groups. Without question this support has helped enhance ChillOut’s value within our local community.
