SUNRISE SHINES ON GEMFIELDS

28 May 2025

The national spotlight will shine on the Central Highlands tomorrow morning (Thursday, 29 May) when Channel 7’s Sunrise broadcasts from the Sapphire Gemfields.

Proudly brought to you by Queensland Country Tourism with assistance from CHDC, the popular TV show’s Georgia Costi will do live weather crosses from Rubyvale.

The segments will feature a host of local legends and give viewers across Australia a taste of what makes the Sapphire Gemfields and our wider region so special.

Tune into Channel 7 from 5:30am or catch all the action later on 7Plus.

With tourism development part of CHDC’s mission, we’re excited to support this opportunity for national exposure and the boost it will give to local tourism.
