A little wet weather couldn’t dampen the spirits at the final day of the 2024 Outback Trail as the Roma community gathered at Western Queensland Spirit Distillery for The Sundowner event. SOCIAL GALLERY.

Though the event was sold out, the final stop of the Outback Trail in Roma was dampened after some unfortunate wet weather.

Event organisers said they had expected upwards of 400 attendees at the event on April 21, but the afternoon only drew about 200 guests.

Instead of the sprawling event planned on the grass, camp chairs were crammed under any and all shelter to listen to the music, and enjoy the drinks the Western Queensland Spirit distillery had to offer.

However, the morale was high, with the event bringing together Roma locals and travellers alike.
