Eumundi shortlisted to win Tourism Town Award

The eclectic town of Eumundi has been shortlisted to win Queensland’s Top Small Tourism Town Award for 2022 hosted by Queensland Tourism Industry Council (QTIC).

The annual award recognises diverse and outstanding destinations across the state with 23 finalists shortlisted.

The final score is made up of a variety of components including a video, itinerary and editorial but 25 per cent of the final score is determined by public vote.

“We’re so proud of this incredible town and community with a dedication and warmth like no other place I’ve ever been,” said Louise Formosa, director of experience Eumundi Board.

“With over a million visitors a year, we’re counting on them to gain the votes we need to secure a win for this prestigious award.

“The great part about it is that anyone who votes before 23 May 2022 goes into the draw to win an Apollo motorhome package worth $2000.

“We’re up against some fierce competition with previous winners including Noosa for the Top Town and Agnes Waters for the Small Town Award in 2021.“
