What to expect
Discover a living piece of Mackay's heritage at the Town Hall in Sydney Street, Mackay. It's a beautiful historic building in the centre of the city which has been transformed into a welcome centre assisting new residents in the Mackay region. Originally built in 1912 for the Mackay Municipal Council, the town hall served as the centre of local government for more than 60 years until the construction of the Mackay Civic Centre in 1975. History lovers should pick up a copy of the 'Mackay City Centre and Waterfront Heritage Trail' brochure from a Visitor Information Centre to learn more about the Town Hall and other heritage sites. Step back in time to learn about the story of Mackay's pioneering spirit, its people, heritage and culture while you journey through a range of sites and events that have shaped the city.
