With Melbourne having just emerged from its latest, long lockdown, Essendon Fields want to give people another reason to celebrate with their Come Back Together campaign. 

The airport precinct just so happens to be marking its centenary this year, making it a double celebration. That’s why the Come Back Together campaign is giving Melbourne 100 reasons to visit post-lockdown, with 100 free coffees, 100 hot chips, and 100 dim sims all up for grabs.

If that wasn’t enough, Essendon Fields has also introduced its Come Back Cash Back offer, with up to $25,000 in cash rebates available for visitors. All you have to do to earn that rebate is spend over $10 at selected retailers in the precinct to get 50% off their spend back (up to the value of $25).

With the select retailers including hair and beauty services – I’m sure, like me, you’ve been desperate to get a nice cut after months of lockdown – and restaurants and cafes, that rebate could come in handy.

As the home of the largest collection of car dealerships in the entire Southern Hemisphere, Essendon Fields is also offering customers the chance to win the ‘Service of the Century’, which includes a helicopter ride and gastronomical adventure from their onsite airport. Simply get your car serviced at Essendon Fields before December 31st to enter the draw.

“We’re thrilled to welcome the community back to Essendon Fields. Our retailers have been busy  prepping for the return of the century for our very valued customers,” Brendan Pihan, Essendon Fields CEO, said. “It has been a really difficult time for local businesses, and we hope this initiative helps support the  return of the Essendon Fields community and our retailers.

With 10,000 trees recently planted around  our award-winning gardens, and historical walking trails celebrating the centenary, there’s never been a  better time to grab a coffee and explore the Fields.”

With local businesses in need of support more than ever after such a tough 18 months, there won’t be a better time to get down to Essendon Fields in North West Melbourne.

The Essendon Fields Come Back Together campaign runs from now until November 30th. Considering the community has over 200 businesses in the precinct, there’ll be plenty to keep you interested for the entire month.
