Australian Equine and Livestock Events Centre due to open in Tamworth
In Tamworth there is a growing sense of excitement and awe over the building of the Australian Equine and Livestock Events Centre. But it’s not just confined to the city and the region, with widespread response and interest from around the country – and inquiries from overseas too.
The $30million Australian Equine and Livestock Events Centre opened in June 2008.. It provides an events centre unrivalled in Australia for its size and unique appearance – and its facilities. It will also pay tribute to the great horsemen and cattlemen of Australia and that heritage will be preserved here.
It is a landmark regional project. It is already an icon and a spectacular sight on the horizon of Tamworth. The centre is set to be much more than just a large performing tin shed that was first envisaged for the site - it will become an iconic landmark. It will include a superior stadium design on two levels and a theatre-style selling ring.

Beam me up, boss
Technology
by: Kylie Northover
 The portable office of the future could be at home, on the beach or in the park, writes Kylie Northover.
It's 11am on Tuesday in the year 2020. You drive from your one-bedroom apartment in Maroubra to your office, a business park in Baulkham Hills. You started the day with a swim, then a 9am teleconference from home.
Now it's time to touch base with your colleagues. The car park is only half full, with many workers BlackBerrying around the city or working from home.
