Australian Survivor to film in north-west Queensland
Production of the iconic reality television franchise, Australian Survivor, has been lured to Australia with $3.9 million in funding from the Morrison Government’s Location Incentive Program.
Previously filmed in Samoa, and most recently in Fiji, Australian Survivor will take advantage of Australia’s effective management of the COVID-19 pandemic and film its sixth season at Cloncurry in north-west Queensland. Filming will begin in coming months.
Minister for Communications, Urban Infrastructure, Cities and the Arts, the Hon Paul Fletcher MP, said the production is expected to inject more than $29 million into regional Australia.
