Queensland cleans up at the 2024 BIG4 Awards

Thirteen awards were presented in total, each recognising outstanding contributions at both individual and park levels

The Gold Coast recently played host to the BIG4 Holiday Parks Annual Awards, where attendees from across Australia gathered to celebrate remarkable achievements within the iconic holiday park network.

Held at Movie World, the Gala was the crown jewel of a three-day conference, “Delivering Excellence Together: THE BIG4 Way,” marking the brand’s 45th anniversary.

BIG4 Holiday Parks CEO, Sean Jenner, expressed his admiration for the dedication and hard work displayed by the network’s owners, managers, and teams, emphasising the importance of the awards in honouring the exceptional commitment shown across Australia.

“We were thrilled to celebrate our achievements and bring together remarkable teams and individuals from every corner of the country,” Jenner shared. “Recognising their hard work under one roof is something we deeply value.”

Thirteen awards were presented in total, each recognising outstanding contributions at both individual and park levels. Among the winners, BIG4 Caloundra Waterfront stood out, earning four awards in an intensely competitive field, cementing its reputation as a leader in quality and service within the BIG4 family.
