The past week has been a defining moment for the future of tourism in Bundaberg, North Burnett, and the Southern Great Barrier Reef. More than 60 industry leaders, operators, community voices, and government representatives came together, united by a shared vision for this extraordinary place we call home.

At the heart of our discussions was a simple yet powerful question: What kind of destination do we want to be in 2045 and beyond?

Bundaberg Tourism is taking a bold step toward creating a more inclusive future with the launch of its Accessible Event Training Series.

Bundaberg Tourism, in collaboration with Bundaberg Regional Council, is proud to present an immersive sensory experience as part of the Great Australian Bites celebrations at Nielson Beach on Sunday, January 26, 2025.

2025 marks the start of the future for tourism across the Bundaberg, Gladstone and Southern Great Barrier Reef regions, with the regional tourism industry gathering to define a bold and visionary new future.

The Bundaberg Visitor Information Centre was awarded the VIC of the Year (RTO-run) for the second year in a row at the Queensland Information Centres Association Awards.

Bundaberg and the Southern Great Barrier Reef shone again on the Queensland stage at the state's peak tourism celebration, the Queensland Tourism Awards, held in Brisbane on Friday 15 November 2024.
