The hospitality directory lists 5,138 employers across 43 towns. Cairns has the largest listed group, with 1,304. We check hospitality employer locations against the official 88-day work areas. These are employers to research, not confirmed vacancies.

Queensland splits at Gladstone: the Northern Australia list covers the outback west and the coast from Gladstone north (Rockhampton, Mackay, the Whitsundays, Townsville, Cairns, the Cape), and paid hospitality counts for the 88 days everywhere on it. The southeast corner is the exception: Brisbane, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast and Noosa aren't on any hospitality list.
