The team will appear at Westfield Garden City outside The Coffee Club tomorrow between 6pm and 7.30pm, attend a gala dinner on Friday night and meet fans at a ticker tape parade through Brisbane CBD on Saturday from 12pm.
Allora goalkeeper and Firebirds captain Laura Geitz will lead the Firebirds during three days of celebrations along with vice-captain and star defender Clare McMeniman who has held various leadership roles during her time at the Firebirds.
McMeniman first played representative netball while a student at Warwick West State School.
