Description

The Skydive Ramblers Post Equinox Boogie held at Toogoolawah, near Brisbane, is Australia's largest international music and skydiving festival and is a visual smorgasbord of skydiving action and parachuting colour.

Held every two years in October, the biennial skydiving event encompasses all disciplines of the sport and attracts over 300 Australian and international skydivers, plus many spectators to the Drop Zone.

The nine-day festival will see all forms of skydiving take place, including night sky diving and fantastic evening entertainment. Jumpers get excited by the big turbine planes, top level coaches, awesome raffles, their famous Equinox Talent Quest, and more.

Visitors welcome! Come along and watch the action. Experience a tandem skydive or do your Learn to Skydive Course.

Music, aeroplanes, skydiving and parachuting all afternoon and into the night!
