Parking And Drop Off Arrangements | |
 | Parking at the Festival and Open Due to restricted parking at the Queensland Tennis Centre, Taekwondo Australia has been allocated our own Car Park at no charge. We advise all competitors and spectators to use this car park as the surrounding area is residential and no parking is permitted. We have arranged a drop off area at the Tennis Centre. Remember that this is for drop off only. Download the map of the parking arrangements and public transport HERE. Please be advised that the area around the Tennis centre is heavily monitored and cars will be tow away at the owner's expense. |

Merchandising, Engraving, Photographs and Korean Tourism Organisation
This year due to restricted space in the spectator floor area, Taekwondo Australia and Jols merchandising, medal engraving, photography and the Korean Tourism Organisation information stand will all be located in the River Terrace Room on the upper level. Just follow the signs up the stairs.
The area also has a panoramic view of the whole competition floor so you will not miss out on any of the action.
