The Weirdest of Oz

Fancy yourself as a bit weird? Well you are certainly in the right place. Australia’s home to a number of weally weird events and us weirdos at TNT are just the people to let you in on them

Hands up who’s heard of the Australian Open? Now keep them raised if you’ve also heard about the World Rabbit Skinning Championships. Hmm, thought not.

The thing is, there’s a whole heap of equally bizarre (although as a general rule, slightly less bloody) events that happen in small towns and communities around Australia, and we’ll bet that you’ve never heard of any of them.

Well, we want to change all that, as not only do they make for a completely unique day out as a spectator, but it’s a great way to explore parts of the country that you may otherwise have missed out on.

And just think how much more interesting they could make your postcards home (“Dear mum and dad, today I dressed up a duck and raced it...”).

Next: WILD, WEIRD WEST >

Have your say

I have a weird One you just HAVE to check out.
The place is Lightning Ridge north NSW, it's at Easter time and it's the goat races, they put lil carts on the back of wild goats and kids sit in the carts, dint worry no one gets hurt, but they also have wheely bin races, all in all a must see.
