We’re back!

 Gympie RSL is open, with the majority of club services available for members and guests.

The health and safety of our customers and staff is our number one priority. As such, we are implementing all measures from the Industry COVID Safe Plan for Queensland Hotels and Clubs including:

  • Strict adherence to social distancing and capacity guidelines
  • Increased cleaning and disinfection throughout all areas
  • Completion of mandatory COVID-19 training by all staff
  • Maintaining an accurate register of all patrons
  • Providing contactless ordering and payment options
  • Instructing staff and customers who are unwell to not enter the venue
  • Encouraging all staff and customers to download the COVIDsafe app

While our focus is providing your favourite club products and services, some short-term changes are inevitable. From re-opening, affected services will include:

  • Our restaurant is operating with limited capacity. Bookings are highly recommended – call (07) 5482 1018
  • Bingo is currently being held at Albert Park Bowls Club – every Wednesday morning.
  • Our Courtesy Bus is now running on Friday and Saturday evenings 4pm – Midnight. Bookings are essential with limited numbers due to regulations. Call (07) 5482 1018
  • Entertainment has now returned, with soloists every Friday & Saturday night. Patrons must remain seated at all times. View upcoming gigs.
  • Gaming promotions have returned – click here for more details
  • Members draws and birthday draws will be reintroduced once COVID restrictions allow.

We have made the most of our closure period to improve future products and services for members. We have also completed a review of our loyalty program and completed comprehensive staff training for all departments.

We are also very excited to announce the appointment of our new head chef Brian Lindsay and new Senior Duty Manager Aaron Thomas. Both commenced in July and bring with them a wealth of experience and expertise.

On behalf of the board, management and staff, we look forward to welcoming you back to the club!
