QUEEN OF THE PACIFIC 1967
The Melbourne Moomba Festival was Australia's largest festival, with an emphasis on cultural and sporting activities, entertainment and pageantry. It held an annual event, Queen of the Pacific Quest, during March from 1967 to 1977. It was not held in 1978, and probably not in 1979. In 1980, it was re-named Moomba Miss International Tourism Quest. It was discontinued after 1983.
