Rabbitohs VS Cowboys On Sale Now

Tickets for the South Sydney Rabbitohs’ fifth consecutive season of bringing a home game to Cairns have gone on sale today to the general public, with a bumper crowd expected at Barlow Park on Sunday 16 July for the Rabbitohs’ clash with the North Queensland Cowboys.

The South Sydney Rabbitohs have shown their continued support of the people of Cairns and the surrounding areas, with the support of Tourism and Events Queensland, by electing to host an NRL Telstra Premiership home game at Barlow Park in Cairns for the fifth straight year.

In what was an electric atmosphere at last year’s NRL event in Cairns; which attracted a capacity crowd of almost 15,000 supporters; Rabbitohs fans, Cowboys fans and sports fans from around the Cairns region, Far North Queensland and interstate descended upon Barlow Park and similar support for the NRL competition fixture is expected again in 2017.

With the likes of Queensland State of Origin stars Greg Inglis, Johnathan Thurston, Matt Scott, Gavin Cooper, Michael Morgan and Justin O’Neill set to take to the turf at Barlow Park five days after the third State of Origin match this year, Cairns is set to become the centre of focus for all NRL fans next July.

Rabbitohs CEO Blake Solly says the buildup to the big clash in Cairns has already begun.

“We’re already hearing from our Members and supporters up north about how excited they are to have South Sydney taking on the Cowboys in Cairns again this year,” Mr Solly said.

“We’ve gone on sale early for this game to give NRL fans in Far North Queensland the chance to get their tickets as soon as possible, and to allow our Members and supporters from Sydney and other areas around the country plenty of time to lock in their plans to travel to one of our biggest events of the year.

“Tickets to this game are a perfect Christmas present for a friend or a loved one, so snap up your tickets now, particularly in the Grandstand and Tryzone sections. “Everyone at the Rabbitohs is excited about this game and we can’t wait to continue our great work with Tourism and Events Queensland to put on another big event in Cairns.”

Mayor of Cairns Bob Manning said there was no better time to secure your spot at Barlow Park for the July showdown between the South Sydney Rabbitohs  and North Queensland Cowboys.

“Cairns is a great sporting city and we welcome the NRL back to Barlow Park in 2017 ,” Cr Manning said.

“I would encourage rugby league fans to grab their tickets early for next year’s match between the Rabbitohs and Cowboys.

“Last year the game was played before a sell-out crowd of about 15,000, and unfortunately some people left it too late to grab tickets and they missed out.

“Next year’s game will be just as big so don’t miss out on the opportunity to see some of the biggest names in the game back in Cairns.”
