14 workshops down… just ONE to go!

We've been a little quiet with our workshop updates but certainly not quiet on the road!

It's been a busy few weeks delivering Tourism & Events Queensland's Best of Queensland Experiences Program, with another six regions ticked off:

📍 Bundaberg
📍 Fraser Coast
📍 Sunshine Coast
📍 Brisbane
📍 Gold Coast
📍 Warwick

And what a fantastic group of tourism operators we've had along the way!

Plenty of questions, great conversations and most importantly, operators gaining a better understanding of where their businesses currently sit within the program and what they can do to maintain their recognition or work towards Silver and Gold.

It's been incredibly rewarding to see operators getting involved, sharing experiences and identifying practical opportunities to keep improving their guest experience.

14 of 15 workshops complete!

Next week we're heading back to Outback Queensland for our final workshop in Charleville!

Yeppoon and Gladstone… you've been fantastic!

Another two Best of Queensland Experiences Program workshops delivered last week and once again, we've been reminded why we love working in tourism!

Great conversations, plenty of questions and some incredibly passionate operators who are doing wonderful things for their businesses and destinations.

It's been fantastic connecting with operators across Queensland, hearing their stories and helping them identify opportunities to keep improving.

Two more workshops complete and the statewide journey continues!

Next stop… Bundaberg!

From the Outback back to the coast!

Barcaldine delivered another fantastic Best of Queensland Experiences Program workshop, with operators joining us from Barcaldine, Longreach and Blackall with plenty of questions, conversation and laughs throughout the session.

After a few extra days in Barcy, we’ve made our way back towards the coast and have enjoyed a lovely stay in Emu Park before the next workshop.

Tomorrow it’s back into workshop mode…
Yeppoon, we’re ready for you!

Thanks, Mackay!

Another Best of Queensland Experiences Program workshop complete, with a fantastic group of tourism operators, plenty of questions and some great discussion throughout the session.

We had a good mix of businesses in the room this time - from Silver and Teal through to operators still working towards BOQE recognition - providing different perspectives and plenty of opportunities to learn from each other.

There’s also been a small change to our workshop schedule. Unfortunately, the planned Clermont workshop won’t be proceeding, but another plan is already being explored to support Clermont operators so watch this space.

For now, we’re heading west again!

Next stop – Barcaldine for workshop #2 in Experience Outback Queensland, Australia but #6 for the tour!

4 down… 12 to go!

Thanks, Airlie Beach!
Another fantastic Best of Queensland Experiences Program workshop with a great turnout of tourism operators and plenty of questions, conversation and sharing of ideas.

This workshop brought something a little different too, with a strong representation of Best of Queensland Gold businesses in the room.

It was great to see operators at different stages of their BOQE journey learning from the discussion and looking at ways to keep improving their business and guest experience because there’s always a next step.

Mount Isa ✔️ Cairns ✔️ Townsville ✔️ Airlie Beach ✔️

Now we’re back on the road…

3 down… 13 to go!

It’s been a busy week on the road for Connect Tourism and Susan, delivering Tourism & Events Queensland’s Best of Queensland Experiences Program across the state.

After kicking things off in Mount Isa, we headed north for workshops #2 and #3 in Cairns and Townsville and what a great couple of sessions!

Plenty of questions, great conversations and most importantly, tourism operators getting hands-on and looking at where their businesses currently sit, where the opportunities are and what they can do to keep improving their guest experience.

We’re loving meeting operators across the different regions and hearing about their businesses along the way.

Mount Isa ✔️ Cairns ✔️ Townsville ✔️

Three workshops done and plenty more Queensland still to cover!

Next stop… Airlie Beach for workshop #4!

A pretty exciting milestone for Connect Tourism!

Yesterday we kicked off the first of 16 workshops across Queensland, delivering Tourism & Events Queensland’s Best of Queensland Experiences Program.

Starting in Mount Isa, it was fantastic to get the first workshop underway with plenty of great questions, conversation and engagement from the tourism operators in the room.

We’re incredibly proud to have been selected by TEQ to deliver this project and to have the opportunity to work directly with tourism businesses right across Queensland - helping operators understand where they currently sit, identify opportunities for improvement and continue creating exceptional experiences for their guests.

And there’s quite a road ahead!
📍 Mount Isa → Cairns → Townsville → Whitsundays → Mackay → Clermont → Barcaldine → Yeppoon → Gladstone → Bundaberg → Fraser Coast → Sunshine Coast → Brisbane → Gold Coast → Warwick → Charleville.

One down, 15 to go!

If you’re a Queensland tourism operator and want to learn more about the Best of Queensland Experiences Program, check out the upcoming workshops and register for the session in your region.

We can’t wait to meet more of Queensland’s incredible tourism operators along the way!
