DUBBO SHOWGROUND OFFERS ADDITIONAL ACCOMMODATION FOR NSW TOUCH JUNIOR STATE CUP
Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) is converting the Dubbo Showground into hundreds of sites into caravan and motorhome accommodation for the upcoming NSW Touch Junior State Cup from the 23 – 25 February 2024.
The Dubbo Showground sites are now available to be booked by event participants. The accommodation option provides visitors attending the Junior State Cup event with a central location in Dubbo that has access to toilets and shower as well as a dump point.
The NSW Touch Junior State Cup will see over 7000 people converge on the Dubbo region for the three day tournament. The event brings together teams from across the state including Sydney Metropolitan, Western NSW, Northern NSW, Central Coast, Mid North Coast and the North Coast of NSW.
“Accommodation providers in Dubbo and the surrounding towns were quickly snapped up following the announcement of the event returning to Dubbo. Council has been actively working on having the Dubbo Showground as an option for caravans and motorhomes, providing families with another accommodation alternative,” Manager of Regional Events, Linda Christof said.
“This is the first time we have used the Dubbo Showground specifically as an accommodation option for a major event.
“It’s a great example of how our facilities can be flexible with some innovation and creative thinking in order to boost accommodation offerings in our region for major events like the Junior State Cup.”
There will be 100 caravan and motorhome sites released at the Dubbo Showground for participants of the Junior State Cup event. This is expected to accommodate over 400 people. If demand is high DRC will release more sites at the Dubbo Showground.
“We are sure a lot of families planning to attend the event will take up this opportunity and stay at the Dubbo Showground. It’s affordable and provides a great central location for families attending the event,” Ms Christof said.
Sites will cost $220 per site plus a booking fee and are only available for the 23 – 25 February 2024. Sites are for caravan and motorhomes only.
