Marketplace events give you the chance to meet and do business with qualified travel distribution companies in key international markets. As an attending operator, you'll directly promote your tourism offerings to retail travel agents, wholesalers and inbound tour operators, and have the opportunity to connect with airlines and Tourism Australia’s in market teams. 

We may also host additional events during Marketplace, giving you further opportunities to engage with the travel trade sector. These may include business to business meetings, destination and product showcases, roundtable discussions and other relevant activities. 

Tourism Australia manages applications and attendance for Marketplace events. Operators cover their own travel costs, which are not included in the subsidy.
