Our 2025 State of Origin Lunch was once again a standout event on the calendar, bringing together rugby league fans and club supporters for an afternoon of footy, laughter, and unforgettable entertainment.
Hosted by the legendary Gary Belcher, the event featured guest appearances from Origin greats Chris “Choppy” Close and Billy Moore, who shared classic stories and insights from their time in the Maroons jersey. Their passion for the game and deep connection to Origin history made for a memorable experience for all in attendance.
We were also treated to a hilarious performance from comedy hypnotist Andy Vening, who had the room in stitches with his unique and interactive show.
A special thank you to our event partners - Blackbird Bar & Restaurant, Ghanem Group, Tangalooma Island Resort and Norman Hotel - for their generous support in making this event possible.
Here’s to another incredible Origin series and an even bigger 2026 event!
