Ekka gates swung open this Saturday the ninth of August, and organisers reckon crowds could set a record after last night’s teaser fireworks lit up the Brisbane Showgrounds.
Ekka opening day fireworks tonight means busy trains and heavier traffic near Bowen Hills. Cheapest unleaded is about one dollar sixty‑nine cents a litre at Quill Petroleum in Red Hill. Make sure you stream Local Sounds Brisbane for the Greatest Hits plus Local Artists every hour.
