Woodford
is situated approximately 1 hour north of Brisbane via the North
Coast Highway, taking the Caboolture turnoff, and travelling a
further 20 minutes. The township is also 1 hour from the Sunshine
Coast and 20 minutes on the Brisbane side of Kilcoy.
The
annual Woodford Folk Festival held each year from Boxing Day until
1st January has made Woodford well known to many travellers both
local, national and from overseas. The Woodford Correctional Centre
is another icon of the area housing anywhere from 600 to 1000 prisoners.
Our
Annual Show/Rodeo is held in June each year and our 2nd Rodeo is
held in January around Australia Day. These functions are co-coordinated
by the Committee and Members of the Woodford A.P. & I. Society
Inc. (Woodford Show Society).
Our
live-in caretaker maintains the showgrounds in Woodford. The grounds
have hot/cold running showers in separate blocks for men and women,
camping facilities, powered sites for caravans if required, various
buildings that can be hired out year round together with our cattle
yards and arena. Many events can be held at the same time owing
to the large area and facilities available.
