A Brief History
TTNQ had its beginnings in the 1960's with the formation of the Cairns Regional Development Bureau.

During the 1980's and early 1990's, as tourism grew in importance to the region, the non-tourism development activities were progressively scaled down and the organisation became focused solely on tourism promotion and development.

In 1997, following a major re-branding exercise undertaken in conjunction with Tourism Queensland (TQ) and the Australian Tourist Commission (ATC), the organisation's trading name became Tourism Tropical North Queensland. At this time, the marketing name for the destination became "Tropical North Queensland".
