New Years Eve
MOST YEARS: people stay 1 to 5 nights sleeping in their swags...tents or motorhomes/caravans on the banks of the full moonie river
Celebrate the old and new year together...a forgotten way in the city..here people do celebrate and share
Celebrate with that aussie attitude that is so strong in the bush....lots of fun no problems no dramas...
Sleep where you celebrate bed is only a short walk away...no drink drivers ...no need to drive after you drink
This new years will be the biggest ever at the Gully. For $50 adults (kids under 14 free) patrons get 3 huge days of entertainment, starting Friday 30.12.11 with country music band Kerry Kennedy & Double Barrel playing into the night.
New years eve we will host the legendary Rob Black and the Kelly Gang who we booked over 2 years ago to play this year.We have our late licenses approved.
At midnight on new years eve Wazza from Fireworks Downunder will light up our beautiful starlit sky with his own massive fireworks display. The largest calibre (diameter and weight) fireworks in Australia are let off every year at Nindigully. You will have to travel to Asia to see the size mortars Waza fires here at the gully.
On new years day our special gully friend and entertainer Adam Kilpatrick will sing to you from lunch time till late afternoon followed by Neil Duddy into the night.By then we hope to of worn everyone out as the 5 of us will certainly be tired.

Nindigully Hotel
Nindigully Pub claims to be Queensland's oldest hotel in it's original condition and can be found in it's original position on the banks of the Moonie River.
The licence was issued in 1864 after operating as shearers accommodation for the Nindigully Station. This claim comes down to how you define "original condition" and how much renovation means that the building has changed.
It certainly is a classic Qld Pub and well worth a visit.
