Get ready to test your fitness and endurance at the 2027 Beep Test Assessment, an important step for those interested in joining the Queensland Fire and Rescue Service. This event offers multiple sessions to fit your schedule and helps you gauge your readiness for the recruit firefighter campaign.
You'll be participating in a structured beep test designed to assess your cardiovascular fitness, a key requirement for firefighting roles. It's a supportive environment where you can focus on your performance without distractions.
This assessment is tailored for adults aiming to meet the physical standards required for recruitment, so come prepared to give your best.
The event runs on Saturday, 27 June 2026, with three available sessions: 07:30-08:30, 08:30-09:30, and 09:30-10:30. Each session allows participants to complete the beep test in a timely and organized manner.
Participants must bring a valid driver licence or passport for identification, a completed QFD Fitness & Indemnity Form signed by a medical professional, a water bottle, gym towel, and snacks to stay hydrated and energized.
Appropriate attire is essential: wear shorts, gym tights, pants, and t-shirts with closed-in running shoes. Open-toe shoes, work boots, sleeveless shirts, skirts, singlets, and dresses are not permitted due to safety and assessment standards.

Parking is available onsite, and the location is suitable for those driving or using local transport options. Arrive a little early to allow time for check-in and preparation.
