The Future Immortals Tour Arrives in North Queensland

Anticipation is building as the eagerly awaited Future Immortals Tour gears up to make its mark on North Queensland from September 6th to 10th. This dynamic event will be hosted by the vibrant communities of Cooktown, Wujal Wujal, and Hope Vale, promising a celebration of unity, diversity, and cultural enrichment.

The driving force behind this remarkable endeavour is the collaborative efforts of the Hope Vale Foundation, Wujal Wujal Council, Gungarde, and My Pathway. Together, they have meticulously crafted an event that transcends boundaries and seeks to empower each community by embracing their unique cultural heritage and shared aspirations.

Cooktown, a bustling service centre steeped in history, stands as a testament to the region's rich heritage. Nestled on the traditional lands of the Guugu Yimithirr people, Cooktown is a living repository of stories and traditions that continue to thrive.

Wujal Wujal is a picturesque enclave nestled along the banks of the Bloomfield River. Its very name, meaning 'many falls' in the local language, pays homage to the sacred waterfalls that adorn the remarkable World Heritage site. This breathtaking landscape serves as a backdrop for the profound cultural exchange that the Future Immortals Tour embodies.

Hope Vale cradles its residents on the fertile Thubi Warra traditional lands, encompassing a lush valley enveloped by tropical native bushland and majestic mountain ranges. This idyllic setting serves as a testament to the resilience of its community and the enduring connection to the land.

At the heart of the ABF Future Immortals Tour is the mission to bring Rugby League Stars directly into these communities, engaging in a series of social, educational, corporate, and sporting activities. By harnessing the power of Rugby League, this tour collaborates with local communities to address essential issues and cultivate aspirations for the forthcoming generations of Immortals. This inspiring journey is one of empowerment, uniting Rugby League legends with communities to co-create a brighter and more promising future.

This momentous event is not only a testament to the enduring spirit of these communities but also a reflection of the potential that lies within the unity of diverse cultures. The Future Immortals Tour promises to be an unforgettable experience that unites hearts, ignites aspirations, and paves the way for a stronger, more inclusive tomorrow.
