The iconic Aussie Firefighters calendar is reaching out to the sexiest, fittest firemen from around the world to join them on the Gold Coast, Australia in April 2019 for the making of the very first “International Firefighters Calendar”.
Firefighters from around the world will be vying for only 11 spots. The winners will join the hottest Australian firefighters to make the world’s first International Firefighters Calendar.
“With the explosion of worldwide interest in the calendar, it only made sense for us to invite the hottest firefighters from around the globe here to the beautiful Gold Coast to be a part of the world’s very first ‘International Firefighters Calendar’”. – David Rogers – Director – Australian Firefighters Calendar.
With the inclusion of the international firefighters, funds from calendar sales will now also be donated back to animal charities located in those participating countries.

This year, however, we must make mention of the newest addition to the Australian Firefighters Calendar collection… Cats!
The biggest surprise from last year was the viral sensation that came from one of their Facebook posts featuring the Australian firefighters with kittens. The response was so overwhelming they felt the need to expand the photo shoot this year to include a cat calendar for the 2019 season.
“The biggest interest in this calendar seems to be coming from Asia, Spain, Portugal, Mexico and South America.” – David Rogers – Director – Australian Firefighters Calendar
The 2019 Cat calendar will join the always popular Dog, Animal and Hot Firefighter calendars to help raise money for charities around Australia and overseas.
“We are very excited to start working with local Australian and international animal shelters. We felt it was important to use the calendar’s social media presence to shine a light on the incredible work they all do. Even a small donation to these organisations can make an enormous difference and we look forward to expanding our support to these charities.” – David Rogers – Director Australian Firefighters Calendar
Again this year the Australian Firefighters Calendar will be donating to the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital. Several images in this year’s Australian Firefighters Animal calendar were taken at Steve Irwin’s Australia Zoo.
“We are so excited to be involved with the 2019 Australian Firefighters Calendar again. The funds they raise help to save and protect Australian native wildlife in South East Queensland. They truly are Wildlife Warriors and we’re so proud they are joining us again to help save our wildlife.” – Bindi Irwin
“Dad loved photography and so do I. It really connects people with wildlife in a way they might not have been able to before, so for the Australian Firefighters Calendar to feature some of our own animals, that’s pretty awesome.” – Robert Irwin
