The 2026 Ford x Maroons Road Trip Is On!

The Maroons are hitting the road this month! Travelling from Cairns to Charters Towers and more, dropping into local clubs and schools, meeting fans, and celebrating the heart of rugby league across the North.

With the State of Origin Sheild travelling alongside us, we’ll also be joined by some Maroons favourites. Jeremiah Nanai, Petero Sivoniceva, Mackenzie Weale and Romy Teitzel, will be appearing at select stops throughout the week to meet fans, run clinic and share their love of the game.
