Sunshine Coast Hotels owner Scott Armstrong said they were extremely pleased to host the function, which had sold out during the first week of ticket sales.

“One in 10 people in the room will have played Origin which has to be a first for any function on the Sunshine Coast,” he said.

“We’ll be tasting beef from the Riverina, NSW and Darling Downs, Queensland and putting Tooheys great brews from NSW against the best that XXXX has to offer, all in support of a worthy local charity.”
