Australia Day – Jandowae

The Western Downs Regional Council Australia Day Awards are held annually to honour individuals and groups who have made exceptional contributions to their communities across the Western Downs. These prestigious awards represent one of the highest forms of recognition Council can offer, celebrating the spirit of community service, leadership, and achievement. 
Award ceremonies are held in multiple locations throughout the region, allowing each community to celebrate its local champions. In 2027, events will take place in Chinchilla, Dalby, Jandowae, Miles, Tara, and Wandoan. 
The Australia Day Awards not only acknowledge outstanding efforts but also inspire continued community engagement and pride across the Western Downs
