Thousands of people from across South-East Queensland joined Supercar Championship drivers, Todd Hazelwood, Aaron Seton, and Andre Heimgartner, at Flagstone recently for an action-packed SuperCARnival.
Marking the fifth birthday of Flagstone, the free event hosted by Peet in partnership with the Supercars Championship, offered a carnival atmosphere including a host of rides, a custom car show, live music and DJs, a kids’ play zone, food trucks, and all-day entertainment.
Supercar Championship drivers, Todd Hazelwood, Aaron Seton, and Andre Heimgartner, all attended the day, meeting fans and signing autographs throughout the event, while other residents enjoyed Flagstone Super Lap experiences in the Ford Mustang Supercars Safety Car.
Mr Hazelwood, who drives for Matt Stone Racing, said that the SuperCARnival was a great way to build anticipation ahead of the Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500.
“It is rare to show up to a community and get the kind of welcome that we have received here at Flagstone,” he said.
“The enthusiasm that the Flagstonians have shown for all things Supercars has blown us away. It’s such a privilege to be part of the community’s 5th birthday and join in the celebrations.”
Flagstone Project Director, Troy Thompson joined Hi-5 star and Supercars’ presenter Charli Robinson and Triple M’s Ben ‘Dobbo’ Dobbin to MC the event.
Mr Thompson said he’s proud of the close-knit community that Flagstone has become over the last five years.
“The SuperCARnival is just one example of Peet’s commitment to partnering with local events to bring Flagstone to life as we look toward the next five years,” he said.
“Events like SuperCARnival expand on our promise to foster a strong community spirit by bringing residents and the wider community together. They’re a critical part of the success of the community and at five years young, this is only the beginning for Flagstone.”
Located between Brisbane and the Gold Coast, Flagstone is one of the fastest growing developments in the region, attracting over 20 new families each month.
