Economic Impact of Major Events Survey

Burdekin Shire Council is launching a new initiative to better understand the economic impact of major community events across the Burdekin. A community survey will be conducted at key events over the next financial year to capture information on spending patterns, visitor origins and community benefits. The initiative will focus on events listed in Council's annually produced Destination Events Calendar, such as the Burdekin Water Festival, Giru Show, Home Hill Harvest Festival and the NQ Fast Track Talent Showcase, among others. 

Survey results will be collated by Council officers and will provide valuable insights into how events contribute to the local economy. A copy of the results will be provided to event organisers to help guide future planning and investment. 

Residents and visitors who attended the events listed below are encouraged to complete the short survey via the link provided. All participants will go into the draw to win a $200 Burdekin Gift Card, drawn one month after each event.
