Located in the Castlemaine Market Building (circa 1862), the Castlemaine Visitor Information Centre is a great place to begin your exploration of this diverse region.
The Castlemaine Visitor Information Centre offers all the latest information on attractions, accommodation, tours, and services and is open every day of the year (except Christmas Day). The friendly staff and volunteers are always more than happy to provide local knowledge, informative brochures and also book accommodation or tours if needed.
Regardless of whether it's your first visit to the region or you are a regular, a visit to the Market Building is well worth your while. The magnificent nave of the building is used for exhibitions throughout the year. Highlights include artisan exhibitions that showcase the latest offerings from our talented local artisans, local community displays and national exhibitions.
The Visitor Centre also showcases the depth of the local talent with a strong emphasis on locally produced merchandise for sale.
