Thargomindah (QLD)

Thargomindah is a remote outback Queensland town located in the Bulloo Shire, rich with history, red desert landscapes and classic country hospitality. The town is known for being one of the first places in the world to produce **hydro-electric power**, using water pressure from the Great Artesian Basin long before electricity became common across Australia.

As part of Queensland’s Channel Country, the region offers wide-open vistas, wildlife encounters, heritage buildings and a peaceful, laid-back outback atmosphere. The Bulloo River and surrounding environment add to the town’s rugged natural beauty.

ShowcasingOz TV will be highlighting Thargomindah’s history, landscapes, community stories and unique outback attractions during our 2026 filming journey.
