Falvey's Saloon Fire: Cause Under Investigation | Brisbane News
Description
A devastating fire ripped through Falvey’s Sundowner Saloon, a beloved pink-hued landmark on the Warrego Highway, engulfing the building in thick smoke by 8:30 AM. Firefighters raced to evacuate everyone and contain the blaze, which was fueled by carpets and poker machines—requiring heavy resources. Though part of the roof collapsed and the attached bottle shop remained untouched, one worker suffered smoke inhalation after attempting to fight the flames. A nearby petrol station was evacuated as smoke drifted toward it. The fire was brought under control by 11 AM, but its cause remains unknown. Authorities are now investigating, as this iconic pub faces a major loss on a busy stretch between Brisbane and Toowoomba.
