This gathering provides an opportunity for locals to come together, enjoy a meal, and support mental health awareness in the region.
All members of the public are welcome to attend.
WSPN have provided the Whitsunday community with a free Tradie BBQ breakfast since the beginning of this year and the popularity has grown immensely.
The Tradie BBQ has gone from a small handful to over 70 people, to enjoy conversation, connection and asking the important question "What's Up Mate?"
Held in the carpark outside Shirtfront Solutions and Enzed it's a popular and central location for many.
The Bowen Community Christmas BBQ is also in a central, easily accesible location for the Bowen Community.
