Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers
COVID-19 format blueprint for change for Australia’s leading event
Proof that there’s a silver lining to everything, the multi-award-winning Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers (TCOF) received recommendation from Toowoomba Regional Council’s Environment and Community Services committee meeting this week, that in 2021, the 10-day celebration will be extended throughout all of September, following the success achieved this year under COVID-19 restrictions.
TCOF 2020 was the first free, unfenced, outdoor, major tourism event in Australia to be delivered during COVID-19 restrictions, and saw more than 200,000 visitors from all over Queensland celebrate a joyous and petal-filled experience.
Toowoomba Regional Council Mayor Paul Antonio gave his support towards the dates being changed from the usual 10-day format, to run from September 1 to 30 in 2021.
