Abseil for Health

Abseil for Health – World Record Attempt

Dare to descend and help us raise funds for Brighter Lives Townsville Hospital Foundation as well as break the current World Record.
On Saturday, 4th June 2022 we will send you off the roof at the Queensland Country Bank Stadium. So gather your friends, family and courage and come down to the Queensland Country Bank Stadium.

This is not just another fundraiser, it is also an attempt to break the current world record for the most amount of abseilers off the roof of a stadium. The current record is held in the UK with 1,350 abseilers in 12 hours. If this sounds like something you always wanted to do and do it for a good cause at the same time, book your spot online for only $40 per person for one abseil. Minimum age is 16 years.

We guarantee that 100% of the proceeds go towards the fundraiser.

Please make yourself familiar with the parking maps and participant information for on the day.
