Calling all Central Queenslanders - after being cancelled due to Covid last year, the iconic Birdsville Races are back in 2021 and the event needs your help.
A call has gone out for people to nominate as volunteers at the 139th edition of one of Australiaâs most iconic outback bucket-list experiences.
Renowned as the Melbourne Cup of the outback, the 2021 Birdsville Races will be held on Friday, September 3 and Saturday September 4, with demand for the event expected to be high following its forced cancellation last year.
Event organisers have also announced that tickets must be pre-purchased and will not be sold at the event gates, and numbers will be restricted to allow for social distancing and other Covid-safe event operations.
