More than 500 Queensland tourism experiences and accommodation will be offered in Tourism and Events Queensland's (TEQ) latest campaign 'Unmissable Holiday Deals'.
The seven-week marketing campaign in Australia and New Zealand strives to maintain the state's dominance of the domestic tourism market.
It will run across social media, display, broadcast video on demand, YouTube, radio and a high-impact partnership with print media to ensure people know what Queensland has to offer.
There is great value to be found all across the state with discounted stays, money-off experiences, kids stay and eat free and loads more on offer.
Some of the best deals include a week in the Whitsundays for $999, two for one with Queensland Rail and 30 per cent off Gold Coast Aqua super passes.
TEQ will also partner with Air New Zealand, Webjet, Jetstar, Wotif, Helloworld, House of Travel, Bonza, Luxury Escapes and My Queensland throughout the campaign to offer compelling, affordable holiday deals on airfares, packages and hotels to drive bookings in Queensland.

This campaign is the latest in a series that have been launched already this year, supporting regions following severe weather and aiming to drive visitation in the short term to support jobs in the industry right around the state.
Campaigns that have already been rolled out include sales with Qantas and Jetstar, the sell-out GC SummerFUNds initiative and the Cairns Tropical Dollars.
Tourism is worth $33.2 billion dollars to the Queensland economy, representing about one in 12 jobs.
