"The events will bring thousands of new visitors to the Oberon district, showcasing all that our district and businesses have to offer," Ms Lowe said.
"Council is to be congratulated for its initiative. The economic benefits will be significant and the impact which our district and businesses will have on visitors will last well beyond the event itself."
