The Burdekin Shire Council welcomes the opportunity to support community events and acknowledges the economic benefits events, such as the Burdekin Water Festival, bring to our beautiful region. The Burdekin's plentiful supply of water has lead to the region being one of the more prosperous rural communities in the country. The Burdekin may have been built on sugar cane, but also is home to a wide variety of crops such as rice, vegetables and fruit. Taste the sweet life, visit the Burdekin.

Ergon Energy’s extensive community partnership program plays a valuable role in supporting the regional communities we serve. With ten depots across North Queensland housing administrative and field staff, Ergon Energy is very much a part of local communities.

It’s about engaging and supporting our communities of which we are an integral part.
