On Australia Day, the setting seems fitting since Redcliffe was once a Moreton Bay convict settlement for the most hardened of criminals and difficult prisoners It had a reputation for violence and death from disease. In 1831, convict numbers peaked at 947 but declined to 374 in 1835 as the convict settlement closed.



So get amongst the fun at Redcliffe this Australia Day. Redcliffe is located 35 kms from the Brisbane CBD.
