Tasmanian Travel Expo: the North East comes to Hobart!

Tasmanian Travel Expo 2011

by Gina Scott

At last year’s inaugural Tasmanian Travel Expo, we came oh so close to being voted most popular stand.  But the North East region will be back again this time around… with a bigger, better and tastier offering!

The Tasmanian Travel Expo will be held in the new Princes Wharf shed, straight opposite Salamanca.  Visit Friday 9 September 5pm-9pm or Saturday 10 September 9am-4pm.  Entry is FREE.

Before or after (or in-between!) stocking up at the Salamanca Market on Saturday, come in and see what the North East of Tasmania has to offer.  Rosemary and Tony from the local tourism association will be joined by Kama from Bridestowe Lavender Farm and Gina from the Yondover goat dairy and cheesery.

Nose your way to the North East stand for a tasting treat of goat cheese, rhubarb chutney or syrup, and Pipers Brook wines.  And while you’re there don’t miss the chance to win accommodation at any one of Anabels, Belle Cottage, Beulah B&B or Platypus Park Country Retreat.  There will also be a draw for a six pack… of Janz (methode tasmanoise … it’s Tasmanian for champagne!!).

What more reason do you need to visit the Tasmanian Travel Expo in Hobart this weekend?  Who will get your vote for most popular stand?

Gina Scott is the owner of Platypus Park
Country Retreat in Bridport, Tasmania

Gee thanks…

Your site and news gets better and better every time I receive a newsletter. The topics are so diverse and the photography superb. I am amazed at the number of Tasmanians, including new Tasmanians, who wish to share their knowledge with everyone. It is very generous of them. All the best.

Wow, this e-zine is fantastic! I'm very impressed. You manage to cover a lot of ground really well; if I didn't live here already, I'd definitely want to, or at least to have an extended visit, based on your articles and information.
