Sydney Town Hall and Restaurant Associates have partnered with Luxperience 2013, an international business exchange for the luxury and experiential travel and meetings community that will take place in Sydney September 2-4.
SYDNEY- The iconic Sydney Town Hall will host the “Luxperience 2013” Thought Leaders Program and Welcome Cocktail Party on 1 September when up to 500 travel industry professionals will assemble in the building’s Centennial Hall, which dates back to 1889.
The delegates will be motivated by business leaders and learn about future trends in travel, especially in the up-scale segment, which is currently the fastest growing niche in the travel industry in the Asia Pacific region.
Sydney Town Hall has a long, successful history in holding high-end international events. The Town Hall will exhibit for three days at Luxperience, which is being held at the Overseas Passenger Terminal on Sydney Harbour.
During Luxperience, Sydney Town Hall will promote its venue to qualified buyers, specialist wholesalers, high-end retail agents, bespoke travel designers and corporate planners from Australia and the world. Many of them say they are looking for something ‘new’ to present to clients. They may have found that in one of the oldest and most recognised buildings in the city.
“Sydney Town Hall will use Luxperience to target companies and groups who are looking for a prestigious location for their corporate event or incentive in Australia,” said Pamela Theophilou, Sales and Events Manager at Sydney Town Hall. “Sydney Town Hall is one of Australia’s best-known buildings and is the civic and commercial heart of Sydney.”
“Luxperience is proud to help support the position of Sydney Town Hall as one of Australia’s most esteemed venues, nationally and internationally,” said Helen Logas, CEO of Luxperience.
Apart from Sydney Town Hall, Tourism Australia and Virgin Australia have also been confirmed as key supporters for the event.
Luxperience is an exclusive business exchange for local and international travel trade held in the Australasia and Pacific region connecting the world’s most elite travel providers. The three-day business exchange from 2-4 September 2013 is a forum for ideas and collaboration dedicated to matching the needs of high-end experiential travel buyers with inspiring suppliers. The inaugural Luxperience in September 2012 laid the foundations for an event in Australasia and the Pacific that aims to raise the profile of the region as an innovator in true experiential travel. Future events will maintain the intimacy of a growing community that is committed to high quality and inspirational travel experiences.
