‘Backpacker Industry Week’ now less than two months away
The Adventure Travel & Backpacker Industry conference (ABiC) will be held on the 4th November at the Menzies Hotel, with two sessions for the Independent Travel Exchange (ITE) on the 4th and 5th November and the Golden Backpack Awards on the evening of the 5th November.
With all three events scheduled for this year there is the opportunity to attend all three events for one discounted multi event ticket price.
The multi event ticket will give 1 person access to the conference, both ITE Sessions and a seat at the Golden Backpack Awards. The multi event ticket is priced at $699 + GST plus processing fee.
ITE will have two 4-5 hour networking sessions one on the 4th November (2pm – 6/7pm) and one on the 5th November (9am – 2pm) to give all businesses more opportunities to meet more people and other businesses. You can attend one or both sessions.
ABiC will be held on the 4th November from 9am – 2pm) and will cover some key topics and speakers which we will announce shortly. The conference has been shortened (as requested on the feedback) and we will endeavour to condense a full day programme into 5 hours.
The Golden Backpack Awards, the original awards programme for the industry and now in its 10th year will be the highlight of the week, celebrating the great and the good of the industry!

Startrack Media said in a statement: “ If you’re on the list, by all means make the most of your achievement and send the link to your profile on to your colleagues and customers. Most of all though, well done and good luck during the voting and the secret ‘secret shopper’ phase of the judging process. And so, to the big night – the Gala Dinner and Awards. This will kick off at 6.30 with a drinks reception before heading into the dinner and awards presentation ceremony at Sydney’s Menzies Hotel, on the evening of 5 November 2015.
As always we will have a celebrity host and band or DJ to to help you enjoy the ultimate evening in the Industry calendar.
Don’t miss out and order your tickets as numbers are limited and final date to purchase them is 31st October.
