Guide to help businesses plan events

The Bunbury Geographe Tourism Partnership has launched its first Business Event Guide, helping businesses plan and execute suitable events. The 80-page document outlines potential event venues, services and activities and was produced with the support of funding from the South West Development Commission. BGTP tourism marketing and development manager Anissa Williams said the guide encouraged businesses to “think outside the box”. “We are extremely pleased to be launching the BunGeo Business Event Guide to help our events, hospitality and tourism industry recover from the impact of COVID-19 and to support event planners who are organising long-lead-time events,” she said. “The guide provides organisers with innovative options for small and outdoor COVID-friendly business events. “Furthermore, when national and international travel and large gathering restrictions cease, BunGeo will be ready.” Before the pandemic, Bunbury’s corporate market was the biggest of all South West centres. “As restrictions lift, BunGeo will be ready to welcome the lucrative business event market as it’s safe and practical to do so,” Ms Williams said. “This is a shout-out to all businesses, event managers and large and small group organisers to look no further than Bunbury Geographe. “Our natural backdrop is stunning and our passionate providers are second to none.” The Events Guide is available for Bunbury businesses to download as a PDF.
