The regional inland city of Griffith has been confirmed as the host for the 2025 Country Change Expo, a major event presented by RDA Riverina. Set to take place at the Griffith Regional Sports Centre on Saturday, October 25, from 10 am to 3 pm, this free expo is an opportunity to shine a spotlight on everything the Riverina region has to offer.

The Country Change Expo is specifically designed for city dwellers who are dreaming of a regional lifestyle. It's a chance for them to explore the many benefits of relocating to the Riverina, from more affordable housing and diverse career opportunities to the enviable, relaxed way of life.

Griffith City Mayor, Doug Curran, expressed the Council's enthusiasm for supporting an event that perfectly aligns with our city’s vision for sustainable growth and community development.

"This is a fantastic chance to highlight everything Griffith has to offer, from our thriving local economy and diverse job market to our excellent schools, healthcare, and cultural life,” said Mayor Curran. 

“We’re excited to be welcoming potential new residents and help them discover why Griffith is such a great place to live, work, and raise a family."

While the expo primarily targets those considering a move to the country, local job seekers are also strongly encouraged to attend. It's a prime opportunity to connect directly with employers and service providers across various industries, including housing, education, training, health, and lifestyle. Attendees will have the chance to speak one-on-one with local businesses, community groups, and relocation experts, gaining valuable insights and making crucial connections.

Adding to the appeal, the event will feature self-guided regional road trip itineraries, inviting visitors to explore Griffith and our surrounding towns at their own pace.

Council calls on businesses to get involved

Griffith City Council is extending an invitation to all local businesses and organisations to participate as exhibitors. Council says it is an opportunity to showcase our region's strengths and directly engage with potential new residents and employees.
