Following the unprecedented success of last year's inaugural South Pacific Tourism Exchange (SPTE) in Auckland in 2014, the South Pacific Tourism Organisation will host its second annual tourism exchange in Melbourne on Friday 19 and Saturday 20 June 2015.

Ideally placed on the tourism calendar dove-tailing into ATE, the exchange will showcase over 80 tour operators and products from no less than 16 member countries of the region including American Samoa, Cook Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Fiji, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Nauru, New Caledonia, Niue, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tahiti, Timore Leste, Tonga, Tuvalu and Vanuatu.

Boasting exhibitors from popular holiday destinations and lesser-known isles alike, the exchange promises to be an informative, interactive and innovative forum for sharing highlights and news from this dynamic region as well as updating the travel industry about the region's progress since Cyclone Pam.

Due to popular demand, the registration for buyers has been extended until Friday 10 April 2015.

For a $150.00 delegate fee, buyers will be hosted for three nights accommodation at one of Melbourne's leading hotels as well as enjoy two full days of catering, networking opportunities, appointments and a closing event cocktail party all conveniently located within the award-winning Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.

South Pacific Tourism Exchange (SPTE) is the region's largest travel and tourism business-tobusiness event.

The SPTE presents an excellent opportunity to learn the latest details about this sun-drenched must-see collective of islands.
