About Us
Like an artery
The Fitzroy River (Tunuba) has been the life-source for the people of Central Queensland since the time of the Dreaming. In a celebration of its glory, and its strength to support the community, Rockhampton Regional Council launched Rockhampton River Festival in 2014.
The three day celebration leverages the riverbank’s stunning natural and built heritage to forge fond and fun memories in the minds of many. The festival embraces these foundations to offer more arts, culture, entertainment, food and enjoyment for visitors.
