Mat Rogers and Giaan Rooney pen postcards from the Gold Coast as Queensland opens up to interstate tourists

Former NRL great, Mat Rogers, and Olympic gold medalist, Giaan Rooney, have written personal postcards to residents of Sydney and Brisbane inviting them to holiday on the Gold Coast.

The initiative from Destination Gold Coast comes ahead of Queensland’s borders opening to Australians from all states and territories, except Victoria, from July 10.

Gold Coast tourism operators and local personalities have handwritten 3,000 bespoke postcards featuring the region’s tourism hotspots such as Warner Bros Movie World and Tallebudgera Creek.
