Brisbane Ekka

Why do they have such a major peice of equiptment if they only use it for 2 weeks in the year? It seems to be popular (heck, even many people who don't know much about carnivals know about it), so I can't see why they don't travel with it. Does it cost more to transport then other rides?

Man, i've been asking the same question for the last 2 years. I heard that they have it at a Christmas carnival, but last year O'Neills didnt show up. So yeah last year it was used for 14 days. I think this is really bad.It probably does cost a little more to run, also with 3 trailers that costs a bit, but Wittingslow managed fine with it. Wittingslow took Rainbow to the following shows: Melbourne Moomba Festival Sydney Royal Easter Show EKKA Royal Adelaide Show Royal Melbourne Show Rye Beach Carnival! So to see O'Neills only use it in Sydney, is really not fair. Anyways, Street Fighter was not at EKKA, I think its name is HARD ROCK, and it will debut in Adelaide on Friday
