Why Choose Our Destination?

Cairns & Great Barrier Reef is the natural place to meet, where your delegates are encouraged to connect with nature and each other. Walk to meetings alongside the Coral Sea, create great moments in the oldest tropical rainforest or on the world’s largest coral reef and dine under swaying palms, in a cane field, on historic wharves or in a World War II oil tank. The recent Cairns Convention Centre refurbishment and expansion, new hotel, city and tourism infrastructure, two world-class universities and strong connections to our key industries of agribusiness, aviation, tropical health, health & life sciences, education & training, tourism, marine services and renewable energy, make Cairns & Great Barrier Reef an unrivalled destination for business events. At Business Events Cairns & Great Barrier Reef (BEC&GBR), our role is marketing the destination as the premier all-year-round business events destination and assisting event planners considering Cairns, Palm Cove, and Port Douglas for meetings, conferences, exhibitions, and incentives. Our complimentary services include providing destination information and advice, assistance with bids, coordination of site inspection itineraries and marketing collateral before and during the program. The only place in Australia where delegates can connect with two indigenous cultures – Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, and featuring the highest concentration of eco-certified experiences, our region's genuine commitment to sustainability and the conservation of our pristine environment ensures when you surround your event with great, your delegates will leave greater.
