PHASE TWO OF DINE & DISCOVER COMMENCES

The second phase of the Dine & Discover pilot program kicked off this week in the Northern Beaches, Sydney CBD and Bega Valley, following the successful and continual testing of the technology in The Rocks and Broken Hill.

Minister for Customer Service Victor Dominello said the stimulus will bring much needed relief to businesses hit hard by COVID-19 and last year’s bushfires.

“These communities have been brought to their knees due to the pandemic and bushfires, and the vouchers will deliver a boost for businesses and encourage customers to get out and about safely.

“It’s not too late for eligible businesses to register. It can be done online and could bring more customers through the door. Customers should also download the Service NSW app now and reap the rewards,” Mr Dominello said.

Minister for Finance and Small Business Damien Tudehope said the findings from the pilots will inform the state-wide rollout, which will be progressively rolled out from March.

“About 700 businesses in Bega Valley, the Northern Beaches and Sydney CBD will take part in the second phase of Dine & Discover NSW, and more than 125,000 NSW residents have been invited to participate,” Mr Tudehope said.

Every NSW resident aged 18 and over will soon be eligible for four $25 vouchers worth $100 in total, to spend in participating businesses.

Dine & Discover NSW vouchers will be divided into two categories:
  • Two $25 vouchers to be used for eating in at restaurants, cafes, bars, pubs and clubs from Monday to Thursday, excluding public holidays.
  • Two $25 vouchers to be used for entertainment and recreation, including cultural institutions, live music, and arts venues, available 7 days a week, excluding public holidays.

The vouchers can only be used at eligible businesses that have implemented a COVID Safety Plan and are registered as COVID-safe. For more information, visit www.nsw.gov.au/covid-19/dine-and-discover-nsw.
