The Big Townsville Sign

Took photos of my family and I for our family Holidays memory photo. Loads of parking. Easy to find Townsville sign on google map.

The signature of my adopted hometown

Seemed to be a waste of money this sign if they still cannot fix the light flickering or when it seems to acctually work.

I guess it was only a matter of time before Townsville got a sign. It is a good location as it has the backdrop of our most famous thing. No not petty crimes, we have the hill with the tattoo.

It's a large ground mounted sign. Good for kids to climb on. I did not climb on it...

Sit on the river bank, looks great!

Nice little walking trail from Townsville sign around river and past stadium

I think it’s a cool idea . And as a distinct from other cities without any “I love” signs before .

Must take a photo.

If you are visiting the Townsville region, this is a must go to place for any of your photos. There is on street parking available (but if there is none directly opposite the sign, Dean St and Palmer St both have carparks available). Toilet facilities however aren't very close, with one option being at Bulletin Square (across the bridge) or at one of the venues on Palmer St.During the day the sign is plain white, but at night time, it lights up - and the colours will change depending on events happening around the city or the world.I visited here yesterday for the local pop-up Food Truck event, which drew a very big crowd. (The signage is pretty solid, and held up well to the many kids climbing over it.) When there aren't any events on though, it is nice to stop by and go for a walk along the creek edge wooden boardwalk which is directly behind it and leads up to the stadium.
