The convention has been a dynamic gathering of tourism industry experts, offering a timely opportunity for our online tourism booking business to connect, collaborate, and contribute to the ever-evolving landscape of regional tourism. 

Visit Rural, known for its commitment to promoting off-the-beaten-path outback travel experiences, is excited to be part of this year's convention, which focuses on fostering sustainable tourism in regional Australia and the importance of collaboration with our Indigenous brothers and sisters. Our attendance underscores our dedication to supporting local communities and small businesses, aligning perfectly with the convention's themes. 

We look forward to sharing our insights on outback rural travel, technology integration, and community engagement, which have been integral to our mission of connecting travellers with authentic rural experiences, and we look forward to hearing from other industry players.

Newcastle, NSW, serves as an ideal backdrop for this momentous event. Renowned for its stunning coastal scenery, vibrant arts scene, and emerging as a regional tourism hub, Newcastle encapsulates the essence of regional tourism growth and development. Noone can match the enthusiasm for this city of the ladies from Newcastle Afoot, who took us on a guided tour showcasing the history, art and hidden treasures of the second oldest city in Australia.
