Stay and Play

Stop, see, stay. You’ll be surprised.

Each year up to 30,000+ people go through the gates of the Rockhampton River Festival with many of them being visitors to our wonderful region. Rockhampton River Festival is the perfect excuse to take some time to explore Rockhampton and we look forward to welcoming you to our region.

Stop, see, stay. You’ll be surprised. Full-bull adventures, trophy Barramundi to be caught right in the front of the Rockhampton CBD Riverfront Precinct, world-class mountain bike trails, strong indigenous culture, events to rival those of Australia's big cities, a significant art collection that includes some of Australia's greats, heritage and history, a zoo, nature day-trips that surround the city, distilleries, breweries, bars and eateries all over town, and 300 days of sunshine a year, it's a destination to stop, see and stay all year round.
