More than kangaroos and shrimp on the barbie, the Land Down Under offers a myriad of events that crisscross the continent throughout the year. Locals and visitors alike are hard put not to find something of interest from regionally sponsored running events to the running of the Melbourne-hosted Australian Formula-One race in March. When it comes to hosting world-class events, Australia leads the way in quality recreational diversions.
As the Health Ministry likes to remind us, staying healthy means staying active, and there are a bevy of year-round activities designed to keep you entertained while keeping you fit. Whether you like to pedal, watch people pedal, or you prefer to go bipedal, then there is an event for you. January of each year witnesses the start of the Tour Down Under in which some of the world’s top rated cyclists blaze a trail across Adelaide and South Australia to the delight of thousands of spectators every year.
Laughter is a universal language, and to prove it, Australians host the annual Melbourne International Comedy Festival, which is billed as one of the biggest comedy festivals on the planet. With more than 600,000 attendees checking out the vast array of activities over a three-week period, it is easy to see that primacy of place is not mere empty rhetoric. March is the month to giggle with stand-up comedy, theater, cabaret, street performances, and more.
The old saying that it is not about the journey but the destination, obviously did not have Australia as their destination. Come see why Australia is the destination you want to set with a wide variety of activities throughout the year.
