The Bowen Polocrosse Club’s first-ever Ladies Day is already a success, with tickets selling out weeks ahead of the July 26 event.
Set on Saturday, the afternoon will feature live acoustic music, prosecco, and a whole lot of fun. The Ladies Day event runs from 12pm to 4pm, offering a wide array of the A and B grade matches as part of a broader effort to promote the sport and attract new crowds.
Capped at 100 attendees, the event is a test run for what could become an annual highlight. Affordable tickets included drinks, souvenirs, and optional catering.
After Ladies Day wraps up, the action rolls straight into the popular Night Chukkas event followed by live music, a Calcutta, food stalls, a Kids' Corner, and a lively bar.
With polocrosse running from 8am through the day, the club is set for a full day of sport and celebration.
Manager of Bowen Tourism and Business, Leanne Abernethy said the first Ladies Day would be a great attraction, with many people looking forward to this addition.
“People travel long distances to attend, and all events held locally provide an economic boost for Bowen and the greater Whitsundays region.
“It is also great to see the community get involved by attending the Night Chukkas event on the Saturday night, Well done Bowen Polocrosse Club,” she said.
