BUYER FAMILIARISATION PROGRAM

Why you should famil in Queensland

Come and be changed by Queensland with bucket list experiences in World Heritage wonders. Rejuvenate and rediscover yourself in the energetic cities, learn to surf at world-class beaches, snorkel with clown fish on the Great Barrier Reef, feast on fresh produce, and immerse yourself under the canopy of the world’s oldest continuous living rainforest, the Daintree. Hear stories from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander locals as you feel deeply connected to Queensland, Australia.

Buyer delegates attending ATE23 are invited to apply to attend a pre or post ATE familiarisation hosted by Tourism and Events Queensland. 

The deadline to express interest in a famil was Monday, 13 February 2023.

For further questions, contact Tourism and Events Queensland by email: jane.webster@queensland.com.

Note: Space is limited and famil itineraries are subject to change.
