Event Organiser Resources
More Than Just The Main Event
A cracking event deserves more than a venue and a run sheet. It deserves a destination people actually want to explore.
Bundaberg Tourism helps event organisers turn attendance into overnight stays, local spending and “while we’re here…” adventures across the region. From destination marketing support and visitor information to itineraries, bookings and local know-how, we help your event punch above its weight and leave a lasting impression long after the final whistle, encore or closing speech.
Event Support Services
Big crowds. Busy cafes. Full accommodation. Visitors extending their stay because someone said “you have to check this place out.”
That’s the sweet spot.
Whether you’re hosting a sporting comp, festival, conference, community event or niche gathering with a cult following and matching T-shirts, Bundaberg Tourism can help connect your event with the wider destination experience.
Because the real magic often happens outside the event gates.
How We Can Help
DESTINATION MARKETING SUPPORT
Need help selling the “why Bundy?” alongside the “what’s on?”
We can provide destination imagery, video, blogs and local inspiration content to help position your event as part of a bigger regional experience. Think less “one-day event” and more “weekend escape with snacks and a reef trip.”
VISITOR INFORMATION & LOCAL KNOW-HOW
Our Visitor Information Centres help guests figure out where to stay, what to do, where to eat and how to squeeze every last drop out of their trip.
Because no one wants visitors leaving town saying, “Wait… there were turtles?”
ACCOMMODATION & EXPERIENCE CONNECTIONS
Need to point visitors toward accommodation, tours or local experiences? We can help connect guests with local operators so they spend less time Googling and more time enjoying themselves.
ITINERARIES & EXTRA EXPERIENCES
Want attendees to stay an extra night or two? Smart move.
We can help identify local touring routes, group experiences and itineraries that encourage visitors to explore beyond the event itself. Reef trips. Distillery stops. Beach sunsets. Bakery detours that somehow become mandatory.
INDUSTRY CONNECTIONS & FAMILIARISATIONS
We work closely with local operators and industry to build stronger destination knowledge and collaboration across the region.
That means better-connected experiences, stronger local partnerships and more opportunities to make your event feel genuinely local instead of copy-paste generic.
Stick Around a While
Accommodation
Turn a quick trip into a proper getaway. From luxe coastal stays to comfy town digs, there’s something for every style and budget.
EXPERIENCES
Give them a reason to linger. Think reef adventures, turtles, tastings and hidden gems worth writing home about.
Visitor Information Centres
Send them to the locals who know their stuff. Our VICs dish out maps, tips and the kind of advice you won’t find on Google.

Post Event Survey QUESTIONS
Post event surveys help you measure success, strengthen funding applications and understand what worked (and what probably needs fewer portable toilets next time). We’ve provided a sample survey below to help guide the types of questions that deliver useful insights for reporting, funding and future event planning.
