Lockyer Valley Regional Council Events Calendar


The Lockyer Valley Regional Council was created at midnight on the 14th March 2008 as a result of the amalgamation of the Gatton and Laidley Shire Councils.

This historical event, in bringing two neighbouring Shire's located in the Lockyer Valley, together provides a strong wealth of resources & cultural unity that will allow the region to take advantage of the significant growth and will provide opportunities to achieve the progress necessary towards building a better, sustainable future.

Both Shires have a wealth of Agricultural, Horticultural and Educational history that will remain the essence of the new Council.

Reflections from our history, has the capacity to provide a clear vision to move forward with balanced view to explore sustainable development to build upon our unique rural lifestyle in the Lockyer Valley - our Valley of Variety.

The National Library of Australia & Partners - Pandora Australia's Web Archive has provided an access to maintain our history in storing our Gatton and Laidley Shires Websites.
