Queenstown voted best Incentive destination

Queenstown has struck gold within the Conference and Incentive industry, receiving global recognition as ‘Best Incentive Destination’ at the micenet AUSTRALIA awards in Melbourne today (16 February).

New Zealand’s premier four season lake and alpine resort was voted number 1 by the readers of micenet AUSTRALIA*, the leading bi-monthly publication for event planners in Australia.  The award was presented during the three-day Asia Pacific Incentives and Meeting Expo(AIME) in Melbourne which was attended by corporate and conference organisers from all over the world. 

Queenstown ticked all the boxes as an inspirational and motivational destination by offering stunning scenery, easy international flight access, high quality accommodation and conference venues, reliable and expert destination management companies, exciting group and adventure activities, a variety of award-winning food and wine.

Destination Queenstown’s (DQ) Convention Bureau Manager Kylie Brittain and Melbourne-based Business Development Manager Jana Kingston were representing Queenstown at AIME along with some DQ members and accepted the award on the town’s behalf.

Ms Brittain said she was delighted with the win for Queenstown and paid tribute to all of the operators who contributed to its success.

“We all work together to deliver a memorable experience to every group, every time, so we’re absolutely thrilled to be recognised by the very market we’re aiming to attract.  This acknowledgement is highly valuable both to Queenstown and New Zealand as a world-class incentive destination.”

Full awards results will be published in the March micenet e-newsletter and the April edition of micenet magazine.
