Broadcasting live on the Nine Network, Karl Stefanovic and Lisa Wilkinson, together with Richard Wilkins, Sylvia Jeffreys, Tim Gilbert and Ross Greenwood, will travel the nation to bring viewers a taste of some of the remarkable regions that have made our country the envy of the world.

The team will check out the exquisite coastal regions of Queensland, starting in Noosa on Monday, before making the journey northwards to Rockhampton and on to Airlie Beach.

They will then venture south to the world-renowned wine region of the Hunter Valley on Thursday.

The broadcast will take place from the Hunter Valley Gardens and has been secured by the NSW Government through its tourism and major events agency, Destination NSW.

“Through Destination NSW, the NSW Government is committed to showcasing our wonderful regions through a variety of platforms that contribute to our goal of doubling overnight visitor expenditure to NSW by 2020, and this special Today Show broadcast is clear evidence of this,” Minister for Trade, Tourism and Major Events Stuart Ayres said.

The Today Show team will cap off their travels with South Australia’s German community at Hahndorf in the Adelaide Hills.

“These We Love Australia trips are the best part about my job,” Stefanovic said.

“Where else would you get to visit five different towns across our amazing country in a week, enjoying all the local hospitality along the way?”

“We love getting the Today team together and heading out to explore all the great destinations Australia has to offer,” Wilkinson said.

“But this particular We Love Australia week is going to be hard to beat, with three days in the stunning Queensland warmth and two days in Aussie wine country.

“Karl and I still aren’t sure why the boss said yes to this, but the tickets are booked and we can’t wait.”
