What do two wonders
of the natural world
have in common with
some of the worlds
best food, art and
entertainment? The
answer is simply and
irresistibly the now
famous Reef and
Rainforest
Carnivale.
The 10 day
spectacular is set
to transform the
North Queensland
village of Port
Douglas into a
stream of riotous
colour and rhythm,
as the 15th Annual
Reef and Rainforest
Carnivale sets
course for
Partyville!
This years
Carnivale which is
to be held between
May 23rd and June
1st will be an
unrivalled
celebration of
natural beauty,
culinary skill,
artistic endeavor,
sporting prowess and
cultural diversity.
Over thirty
individual events
will make up the
Reef & Rainforest
Carnivale and each
one promises to be
as unique as the
landscape and people
of this magnificent
region.
For local residents
Carnivale marks the
moment when the
monsoonal trough
begins its retreat.
As if on cue people
spill out onto the
streets, populating
the restaurants, art
galleries and
beaches. Some
clamber aboard
yachts to hoist
sails in preparation
for the regattas.
Others jostle for
position in the
estuaries in the
hope of catching the
tagged Barramundi
that could win them
$10,000 in prize
money!
Amidst the string of
events that make up
the Carnivale,
differences are
transcended and
locals and visitors
party in tropical
utopia, together
celebrating in very
unique style the
meeting of two great
wonders of the
natural world The
Reefs and
Rainforests of
Tropical North
Queensland.
Come to Carnivale,
youd be mad to miss
it!
