You are invited to the fifth annual Shop Local night hosted by The Rotary Club of Echuca.

The event is on Thursday, November 27, 2025, with everyone encouraged to support local businesses during the Christmas shopping season.

The evening begins with participants meeting at Bar Lee inside Echuca Distillery at 555 High St from 5pm.

“The Shop Local night started as a Covid recovery event, knowing that a lot of people would be looking to still shop online in 2021,” Rotary Club of Echuca committee member Rob Foran said.

“We are trying to encourage people to get out and about to our local stores and do their Christmas and gift shopping locally.

“Given the success of the first one, we have just kept doing it every year.

“We all meet together at the beginning of the night, and we do a briefing on what the night is about and encourage people, if they are umming and ahing to definitely spend their money in Echuca.”

Shopping commences at 6pm across more than 15 participating stores, continuing until 9pm.

Participating businesses include I Want I Need, Fashionably High, Arbory Store, Rich Glen, Collins Booksellers, JACS, Mad Hatter Tea Shop, Annabella, Candle Scents, Soap Bar Co, Good Ole Country Gifts, Echuca Camping and Fishing, Blossom & Co, Echuca Heritage Sweets, Bar Lee, Customs House Gallery, Echuca Chocolate Company and Wake Ski and Surf, with room for more stores to still get on board the event.

A sample of the offers on the night include specials on wine at the Echuca Chocolate Company, Soap and Co will have 20 per cent off store-wide, as well as samples of local baked treats from Deliah & P Bakes and JACS is offering 10 per cent off store-wide.

Many of the participating stores are offering Shop Local night specials and discounts, that you will only find as part of the event.

“All of our participating stores have generously donated a $30 voucher for the raffle,” Mr Foran said.

Lucky door prizes and raffles will be drawn after 8.30pm at Bar Lee, with more than $400 worth of prizes available.

Entry tickets cost $5 a person and include entry into the prize draw.
