Ballina Shire Council is hoping to assist businesses in Lennox Head with a Golden Ticket promotion launching later this month.
The main street is currently open after the latest Lennox Village Vision works, but with some visitors still unsure about the access situation, the Lennox Head Golden Ticket – Shop to Win Campaign is designed to welcome shoppers back with ‘open arms and enticing opportunities.’
Ballina Council says everyone is invited ‘to explore the revitalised village and discover its diverse range of businesses, from charming boutiques to delightful cafes and restaurants. With wide-paved footpaths, breathtaking ocean views, and an upgraded Ross Park for kids, there’s something for everyone in this idyllic coastal setting.’

How to participate
Shoppers will be able to enter by making a minimum of three separate purchases of $20 or more each from participating Lennox Village businesses (yet to be announced).
The grand prize is a $3,000 Golden Ticket that can be spent at a maximum of five participating businesses of the winner’s choice.
The Lennox Head Golden Ticket campaign will launch officially on Friday 22 September.
