The city has a vibrant artistic scene with incredible designers, artists and makers, a strong local theatre industry and – of course – lots of musical theatre performances!
From Launceston, you can follow the Tamar River north through Tasmania's premium wine-growing region, past forested hills and farmland, lavender fields, vineyards, orchards and pretty riverside towns. Historic villages are found around every corner, from Longford on the outskirts of Launceston to Evandale, Ross and Campbell Town along the Heritage Highway south.
