When people think of Cairns, they picture palm-fringed beaches, the Great Barrier Reef, ancient rainforests, and the rich cultures of the Torres Strait Islander and Aboriginal peoples. But for business events, Cairns & Great Barrier Reef offers much more. All you need to do – is just add delegates.
Professional services, local expertise
Every successful event relies on expertise, and Cairns has local services that rival those found in major cities. The region provides everything from full registration management with real-time updates to advanced staging, digital connectivity, and audience engagement tools like live polling and moderated Q&A.
Remember to include video production for social channels. Local crews can quickly capture and share event highlights, building excitement and buzz while the event is happening – ensuring the all-important FOMO for next year’s event.
Every event aims to stand out, make delegates feel valued, and create lasting memories. Local graphic designers can add a tropical touch to custom signage, banners, and digital displays, while their colleagues can also handle printing, delivery, and setup, saving budget and the hassle of freight transport.
Exhibition builders in the region use sustainable materials, reusable structures, and focus on reducing carbon emissions. Regional contractors offer cost savings and valuable local knowledge. This circular economy approach helps the environment and supports local jobs. The region is renowned for working together – if a supplier doesn’t know how to assist, they will know someone who can, or they will find someone else who can! You then win, with less freight, lower costs, and greater impact without losing professionalism. Additionally, when plan B and C are called for, local insights know where to go to get what’s needed, ensuring every event manager comes out looking amazing!
