Led by the Phillip Island 150th Celebrations Planning Committee, the fast approaching year will provide a great opportunity to celebrate the island and its rich Aboriginal and European history.

In 2018,  the Phillip Island community as it marks the 150 year of the first European settlement on the island. This date recognises the first release of land for selection in 1868 for European settlement.
