We’re gearing up for an exciting week in The Whitsundays as we welcome the Hon. Andrew Powell MP, Minister for the Environment and Tourism and Minister for Science and Innovation. As part of his visit, we’re hosting an important conversation about the future of tourism in Queensland—and we’d love for you to be part of it.
On Tuesday, 11 February, we’re bringing together industry operators, community voices, and key stakeholders for the Destination 2045 Regional Consultation Workshop in Airlie Beach. This is a chance to share your thoughts on where our industry is headed over the next 20 years, how we can keep growing sustainably, and how we can make the most of big opportunities—like the rise of ecotourism and the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
The Whitsundays is such an important part of Queensland’s visitor economy, and your perspective will help shape a plan that ensures our region remains a world-class destination. Whether you’re passionate about preserving our natural beauty, growing new tourism experiences or driving investment into the region, this is your chance to have a say.
