The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs have released their final round of tickets for the upcoming game in Bundaberg against the Redcliffe Dolphins.

The game will mark the second in a three-year game deal between Bundaberg and the Bulldogs and will welcome the Dolphins to the region for the very first time.

New seating and vantage options at the Slater Oval ground will offer attendees an even better experience for the 2023 game on July 30.

Bulldogs CEO Aaron Warburton said the Bundy Bulldogs were excited to return to their home away from home.

“We were overwhelmed by the warm welcome and the support we received from the Bundaberg community, and this year’s meeting with the Dolphins promises to bring an even greater event with better views, more family-fun activities and another great game of rugby league for locals to enjoy,” he said.

The Canterbury Bulldogs have revived their RACQ Life Flight ticket donation pledge ahead of their Bundaberg game.

The club has also committed to reviving its 2022 ticket pledge to the RACQ LifeFlight Rescue Helicopter Service.

It will donate $1 from every ticket sold to the lifesaving service, and in 2022 that pledge returned $8500 worth of medical equipment and training.

“It’s the community who came together last year to enable us to make such a significant contribution to LifeFlight,” Mr Warburton said.

“We are so pleased to once again be lending our full support to LifeFlight as a charity partner for the upcoming match and as we close in on another Bundaberg sellout, we know we can provide even more funding to this essential service.”

Tickets are still on sale here, but are expected to sell out fast.
