In Queensland, events are simply an excuse to have a great time.

Enjoy life to its fullest at food and wine festivals that simply provide an excuse to indulge. Visit a local event in a small town and really feel part of the community.

See some of the world's best athletes at golf and tennis tournaments, car races, triathlons and cycling competitions. Bring out your competitive nature as you watch professional Aussie Rules, rugby, soccer or a cricket match.

Participate in one of the many fishing or outrigging competitions around the Great Barrier Reef and then celebrate your victories in the evening with street parades and live bands.

Thoroughbreds take centre stage with premier horseracing events while country carnivals and equestrian events show Australia's rural past.

Heritage events draw on a rich history and celebrate indigenous culture, stockmen and ethnic settlement. Mix with locals and you'll how see the rural life blends happily with the 21st century.
