The state government has re-introduced its popular Victorian Dining and Entertainment Program, allowing Victorians, including those in Wyndham, to save money on eating out, going to gigs and museum visits over spring and summer.
The program, which opened on Monday, September 19, allows customers to claim 25 per cent back when they spend $40 or more anywhere in the state.
“Eligible purchases include meals at restaurants, cafes and pubs, tickets to live music or art performances, and entries into museums, galleries and amusement parks,” the government said.
“Customers can claim up to $125 cash back each and make multiple claims until they reach the cap.
“The first round of the Program was launched in March this year and saw more than $32 million claimed in three months, with Hai Dai Lao, Dumpling Alley and Shanghai Red the most popular dining venues.
“Trips to the cinema and Harry Potter and the Cursed Child at the Princess Theatre were the most popular entertainment choices.”
Industry Support and Recovery Minister Ben Carroll said whether it was booking a table for lunch or heading to a live music event, the program made experiences more affordable and supported local business.
“This program also helps build business and consumer confidence, while supporting jobs and boosting the state’s economy,” he said.
The $25 million program runs until December 16, 2022, or when funds are exhausted.
