Capricorn EventsConferencing in CapricornThe Capricorn Region offers a diverse range of meetings, conference, incentive and events choices that will give your next event a REAL taste of Australia.
With hotels, resorts, exhibition venues, events organisers all readily available within the region, planning a conference is easy and makes for an ideal destination choice. Capricorn is also a jumping-off point to the magnificent Great Barrier Reef - just a short cruise or flight from the mainland. If a REAL incentive experience is on your agenda - how about taking your group on a visit to a working Crocodile farm to learn about the conservation and commercial production of crocodile for the dining tables of Australia and the Gucci leather works in Italy.... or perhaps a cattle station where they can see why Rockhampton has earnt the reputation as the Beef Capital of Australia.... or try some fishing for Barramundi and Reef fishing just offshore from your island resort and conference venue. Rockhampton is the region's transport and business hub, with major highways radiating out in all directions, easily linking to the rest of Queensland and the southern states. Rockhampton is located on the Bruce Highway approximately 650km north of Brisbane and 500km south of the Whitsunday's. Rockhampton aiport offers over 100 services per week, with multiple direct connections to Brisbane each day and with direct services to Melbourne and Sydney.
The Tropic of Capricorn lies across the region, and marks the parralle latitude or imaginary line on the Earth's surface approximately 23.5 degress south of the equator, dividng the "Tropics", a region of consistently warm climate, and the "Southern Temperate Zone".
