The Queensland Mining & Engineering Exhibition (QME) is renowned as Australia’s largest regional mining event, solidifying its role as the centerpiece of the resources sector in Mackay and the broader Central Queensland region. For over three decades, QME has served as the ultimate showcase of supplier innovation and excellence, attracting thousands of industry professionals, buyers, and decision-makers. It is the premier gathering for those working in or supplying to Queensland’s dynamic mining industry.
Held at the Mackay Showgrounds, QME features an expansive exhibition floor with hundreds of industry-leading suppliers. Attendees can explore cutting-edge equipment, see live demonstrations, and witness real-world mining operations in action across both indoor and outdoor displays. This comprehensive show provides unmatched exposure to the latest products and innovative services designed to enhance efficiency, productivity, and safety on mine sites.
Beyond the machinery, QME is committed to thought leadership. The free-to-attend Leadership Series offers practical insights from industry experts on pressing issues, including innovation, sustainability, workforce management, and critical minerals. Attendees gain valuable knowledge to navigate a rapidly evolving sector. The QME Mining Pavilion acts as a central hub, facilitating meaningful connections with key mining companies and major contractors, showcasing procurement and partnership opportunities. Furthermore, the Decarbonisation Showcase highlights solutions that help companies meet their Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) obligations.
QME offers unparalleled networking functions, including the opportunity to attend the prestigious Queensland Mining Awards hosted by the Bowen Basin Mining Club alongside the exhibition. This makes QME an unmissable event for mining professionals seeking to source new technologies, gain vital technical information, debate critical industry issues, and build lasting business relationships in the heart of Queensland’s mining community.
