Bee Gees fever recently swept Queensland with Moreton Bay Regional Council unveiling a new statue and walkway – Bee Gees Way – honouring the world famous pop group.
On Thursday 14 February, thousands of people attended the official opening of Bee Gees Way by Barry Gibb.
The Moreton Bay Region is where it all started for the Bee Gees, with the group signing its first music contract on the kitchen table of their Scarborough home.
Local Brendale sculptor Phillip Piperides crafted the statue from a number of photos of the boys personally selected by Barry Gibb himself.
Bee Gees Way is already returning huge dividends to the Moreton Bay Region, having attracted large-scale national and even international publicity.
Awareness of the walkway will only grow over time and attract music fans to the Moreton Bay Region for many years to come.
Bee Gees Way is located off Redcliffe Parade, Redcliffe and includes a statue, 60 photographs, 13 album covers, a mural of the band and a wall showcasing some of the band’s most famous songs.
