Council backs a couple of winners at Ipswich race tracks New
Date: 02-Apr-2025
The races are on in Ipswich this winter – and Ipswich City Council is along for the ride.
Two of the city’s biggest sporting events – the TAB Ipswich Cup and Gulf Western Oil Winternationals – will benefit from council sponsorship as they attract thousands of attendees in June as part of the city’s month-long 2025 Festival of Horsepower.
Ipswich Mayor Teresa Harding said supporting these events boosts Ipswich’s reputation as a must-visit destination for adrenaline-fuelled and high-octane fun.
“Ipswich Cup is one of Queensland’s favourite race days, so the decision to extend council’s long-running support with a $20,000 sponsorship for Ipswich Turf Club to host the 2025 event is certainly a safe bet,” Mayor Harding said.
