The sound of Taiko filled the streets of Bega! 🥁

One of the unforgettable moments of this year's Bega Streetlight Festival was the incredible performance by the Japanese Taiko drummers.

The powerful rhythms, energy and atmosphere had people stopping to watch, and created a truly memorable Festival experience.

A huge thank you to the performers for sharing their incredible talent with the Bega community.

Your workspace. Your business. Your community. 💻

Working from home doesn't always give you the focus, professionalism or connections you need.

Bega Co-Work, operated by the Bega Chamber of Commerce and Industry, provides a professional workspace for local businesses, remote workers, freelancers and professionals.

It's a place to get work done, meet other people and build connections, right here in Bega.

The Co-Work space is already home to several local organisations, creating a growing community of people working, collaborating and contributing to our region.

Whether you need a dedicated workspace, somewhere professional to work when you're in town, or simply a change from the kitchen table, Bega Co-Work is worth a look.
