There’s lots to see along the way as we travel past the Birdsville Race track, over the Diamantina River into Birdsville township for a beer at the Birdsville Pub.

Birdsville’s iconic Big Red Bash kicks off under the open skies of Australia’s Simpson Desert. You will meet thousands of people from around Australia, and the world. The concert is definitely off the beaten track – but that’s what makes it so special!
