The Burdekin’s very own Sweet Days Hot Nights Festival is up for a People’s Choice Award at the 2025 NQ Tourism and Events Awards, and locals are being urged to get behind the festival and vote. As the region’s only entry in the Festival and Events: Destination category, every vote counts in helping bring the award home.
Voting is open to the public, with the highest vote-getter in each category winning. Voting closes 26 October, and those who participate go in the draw to win a $500 Holiday Voucher.
The festival highlights everything that makes the Burdekin unique, from its agricultural heritage as the Sugar Cane Capital of Australia, to fresh local produce, culinary delights, adventure and sports tourism, music, and family-friendly entertainment.
The 2025 program delighted the region with headline events such as the Burdekin Cultural Fair featuring First Fire on 30 May, and the Australian Hand Cane Cutting Championships on 31 May. With two days of community celebration, country hospitality, and fun for all ages, the festival showcased the Burdekin at its best.
Now the community has the chance to celebrate the festival once again by helping it claim a People’s Choice Award. Cast your vote today and help Sweet Days Hot Nights Festival take top honours for the Burdekin.
