Media Tag: “Submerge your senses”
Organiser: Blue Edge Media Pty Ltd
Type of Event: Consumer Exhibition & Conference
Number of Exhibition Booths: 84
Expected Numbers: ODEX is working very closely with the SOPAC Marketing Team in a joint effort to combine both marketing and media resources. The Marketing Team at SOPAC has excellent publicity channels and strong media links in the mainstream press. In addition to this, the venue generally caters for an average of up to 2,000+ general public (swimmers) each weekend.
Blue Edge Media, the Organiser of the 2nd Oceania Dive Travel & Watersports Expo, has also developed and cultivated major print and online support from the both the dive and travel industry.
Therefore by working together with SOPAC, we would expect anything between 5000‐6000 visitors as a low estimate.
Retail Sales Policy: The number one reason why visitors came to ODEX in Brisbane was to buy gear and gadgets. Having a sales policy where you can sell stock will not only attract visitors seeking bargains but it will also help exhibitors sell off last season’s product lines or slow moving stock. We would like to encourage manufacturers, importers and wholesalers to support their regional retailers and dealers through joint sales promotions and brand initiatives at ODEX.
Free Car Parking: 4 hours automatic free parking applies with the purchase of an entry ticket.
