"While the multi-million dollar upgrade is underway, our customers will still see the familiar faces of our Kingaroy team at the 'Bank in a Box'. We can't wait for everyone to come in and say g'day."
The 'Bank in a Box' will be operational from Friday, 1 August through to Thursday, 9 October 2025, with the newly upgraded Kingaroy Branch scheduled to reopen on Friday, 10 October 2025.
