Greater Shepparton City Council is pleased to announce that the new Shepparton and Goulburn Valley Conference and Event Planning Guide is now being developed.
In Summary
The guide delivers event organisers a comprehensive venue and service listings for the Greater Shepparton region, all in the one location.
The aim of the Conference and Event Planning Guide is to grow Greater Shepparton’s share of the meetings, conference and events market by working collaboratively to demonstrate the quality and diversity of conference and major event venues, services and attractions in the region to potential event organisers.
Regardless of the size of your business, this is an opportunity to join operators and stakeholders to make Greater Shepparton the number one regional choice for conference and major event organisers.
The Conference and Event Planning Guide is perfect for major event venues, event and conference service suppliers, catering suppliers, tourism and business attractions and businesses seeking conference and event bookings.
There are three different listings you can purchase, either a full page advertisement for $600, half page for $400 or a quarter page for $250. The document has a life span of three years and it will be distributed at key trade shows as well as being promoted online.
A limited number of full and half page listings will be available. To ensure you secure the best layout to showcase your venue please ensure you book your space early. Larger layouts will be confirmed on a ‘first come, first served basis’ until all available listings of that size are exhausted.
Mayor, Councillor Shane Sali, said the Conference and Event Planning Guide is a fantastic way to promote your venue or service.
“With over twenty per cent of visitors to our region traveling on business, the Conference and Event Planning Guide is the best way to let the visitors know about your service,” he said.
“These high yielding travellers stay in our higher end accommodation properties and dine in our restaurants, contributing to our local economy. So if you want to increase your potential as a business I highly recommend putting a listing in this guide, which will last for three years”.
