Event organisers seeking the perfect location for their next business event must consider Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef. Why? Local business event professionals and companies understand the importance of delivering sustainable and regenerative events. Consider reducing your environmental impact with these suggestions for hosting regenerative events in Cairns & Great Barrier Reef.
Explore two World Heritage-listed wonders—the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest by choosing eco-accredited operators. In the Cairns & Great Barrier Reef (GBR) region, you will find the highest concentration of eco-tourism-accredited operators in Australia. This means you have plenty of options for group activities, team building, partner programs, and pre- or post-touring.
Including a CSR activity in your business event is fun and a great way to educate your delegates, meet our locals, and connect with our environment. Work directly with our reef and rainforest operators, including the Cairns Aquarium, who host the world’s first Living Coral Bio Bank collection of hard corals and the Turtle Rehabilitation facility, or engage local companies such as Managing Australian Destinations to deliver programs that ensure delegates leave greater from their experience.
Did you know that a portion of your ticket goes to conserving the Great Barrier Reef and that all reef operators undertake daily coral monitoring and manage regeneration programs in conjunction with the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority and the Australian Institute of Marine Science? So, by including the Great Barrier Reef in an event program, you contribute to this natural wonder’s long-term preservation and conservation practices.
From the Coral Sea to the volcanic soil of the Atherton Tablelands and the lush Daintree Rainforest, our region offers an abundance of local produce. Lower your food miles by choosing a restaurant or catering company such as the award-winning NuNu or Ochre, who will not only tantalise your delegate’s taste buds but ensure your menu is locally sourced.
Choose Cairns & Great Barrier Reef for your next business event, with the knowledge that our destination, a sustainable and regenerative success story, fulfils your corporate social responsibility goals for the future.
