Do it mate, the southern sky is worth it
AstroFest is a great event, lots of friendly folk, and it's relatively close to Brisbane (2 hours by car).
If you're planning on driving elsewhere, just remember to pace yourself. The distance thing here is a different ball game, even though you're from Texas. Uluru is a good 3000+ km drive whichever way you go.
