MULLUMBIMBY
Mullumbimby is a scenic town situated at the foot of Mount Chincogan beside the Brunswick River. The Showground is just 1.3km from the town centre.
Just 20mins from Byron Bay, Mullumbimby is small in population but big in personality. All palm trees and tropical architecture, Mullum (as it’s affectionately known) is the gateway to the World Heritage-listed rainforest that characterises the far North Coast of NSW.

BRUNSWICK HEADS
From its surf shops to its marina full of fishing boats, from its gloriously golden sand to its Art Deco architecture, Brunswick Heads is the quintessential Aussie beach town. The reboot of the popular drama Sea Change was even shot here. But don’t come expecting Hollywood buzz; the sleepy hamlet on the NSW North Coast is as laid-back as they come, with bare feet and salty hair accepted and expected.

NEWRYBAR
Newrybar is a historic hinterland village with charm to spare.
One of the biggest drawcards here is Harvest, an award-winning restaurant, deli and bakery housed in what was the oldest bakery in the country.
The hamlet has more than its share of great retail, too.
Drive the country roads surrounding Newrybar to discover coffee and macadamia plantations and farm-gate stalls and take a dip at Killen Falls.

BANGALOW
Bangalow takes everything great about its coastal sister of Byron Bay – including a passion for food, a tight-knit creative community, and a love for the great outdoors – and distils it into a laid-back package befitting this hinterland setting. The main street is a postcard-perfect line-up of historic Federation-style buildings, today home to innovative eateries that hero local produce.
