A note on checking
We read these hours on 31 October 2026, and the council's pages from 2025 archive copies because the live site would not load for us. Hours change, particularly around Christmas. Use this calendar to plan, then check the venue the day before.
For a full weekend plan that works around all of this, see 48 hours in Townsville.
