Since opening in May, the Airlie Beach Foreshore Ferris Wheel has become one of the region’s most popular attractions, drawing more than 50,000 locals and visitors to experience its 35-metre-high views across Airlie Beach, and the Foreshore.
Offering sweeping 360-degree outlooks over Conway National Park, the Whitsunday islands and the turquoise coastline, the Ferris Wheel has been a focal point for holidaymakers and residents alike. It has created family memories, added to the foreshore’s vibrant atmosphere, and even hosted 17 marriage proposals.
With the attraction scheduled to wrap up on Saturday, October 11, the Whitsunday Regional Council is now seeking community feedback to help decide whether the Ferris Wheel should return for future seasons.
Those yet to experience the Ferris Wheel still have a few days to enjoy one final ride before it packs up ahead of the storm season.
Residents and visitors are encouraged to share their thoughts on whether the ride added to Airlie Beach’s charm and character, or if it should remain a one-time feature.
Consultation closes on October 31, with submissions invited through Council’s online engagement portal.
