Ballarat Heritage Awards

The 2016 Ballarat Heritage Awards are now open!

The Ballarat Heritage Awards were first launched in 2010, a key recommendation of Council’s ‘Preserving Our Heritage Strategy’.

The awards are held by the City of Ballarat in partnership with the National Trust of Australia (Victoria) and the local Ballarat Branch of the National Trust.  They provide an opportunity to say thank you to the many dedicated owners, businesses, groups and individuals who work tirelessly to conserve Ballarat's significant heritage. The awards have grown since their inception and are held by a number of local councils and National Trust branches across Victoria.
