We’re excited to partner with some iconic Sapphire Coast businesses to bring WinterSun to life this June long weekend. Keep checking our social channels for updates on the events and experiences on offer.

OUR PARTNERS

It takes a village to put on an event like this and we’re so thankful to the raft of generous, local businesses that truly support out town and our festival. 

We have a swag of fabulous prizes to give away during WinterSun. Our Mitchies Jetty swimmers and Wharf to Wharf walkers and runners will have the opportunity to win dinner voucher from Lake View Hotel, product and vouchers from Day Trip Store and Seaside Health Club, plus hampers, free sessions and vouchers from Top Fun, Re:Wild with JC, Mitchies Espresso Bar and Liquor Legends. 

Plus Wharf to Wharf challengers will travel up to the starting line in style courtesy of Sapphire Coast Bus Lines.

This year we’ve partnered with the Bendigo Bank Bega & Pambula for our Saturday morning WinterSun Water Fest and are very excited to announce Capital Chemist Merimbula as our bib sponsor for the Wharf to Wharf challenge. 

Special thanks to our major sponsors Club Sapphire & Merimbula RSL that not only support our festival but provide fantastic entertainment of their own, all year round, and Splash Internet who provide the entertainment when we’re at home.

We think the rest of our sponsor list really does reads like a who’s who of a great stay on the Sapphire Coast, so here goes…

Fly into town via the revamped Merimbula Airport, pick up a hire car from Hertz, stay at Pelican Motor Inn right in the centre of town, or check out the lake views at Robyn’s Nest pick up some cool threads from Day Trip Store on the way plus, sunscreen and a hat from Capital Chemist, grab a coffee at Mitchies Espresso Bar when you get there and warm up thoroughly for your swim with Re:Wild with JC. Then, tire the kids out with some epic bowling, laser tag and mini golf at Top Fun and then onto an amazing dinner at Lake View Hotel. .

And it’s not just those visible Merimbula businesses that have come on board to support us.  Big thanks to Merimbula Chamber of Commerce, Merimbula Special Events committee, Fox Airconditioning and Pambula Surf Lifesaving Club who do so much behind the scenes to make our town the beautiful place that it is !!
