EXHIBITOR TESTIMONIALS
This was our first time being an exhibitor at the Mackay Expo and I am so impressed with the event organisers and support from our own local community. The team were so wonderful helping us with marketing designs and keeping up well informed throughout the lead up to the event. We were very pleased with our own companies success, as the phone started ringing the day the official event guide was added to our local newspaper – days before the event event began.
We had a great time at the Mackay Expo! The exposure and new leads brought in by representing our company to many locals has seen an increase in requests for quotes and a substantial increase in brand awareness within our community as well.
It was our first Expo. We did very well making well over what we had expected. The crowd filtered through pretty steady for the three days. Set up and make up was really easy. We are keen to participate again next year.
We were very pleased with the success of this years show, we have generated alot of interest in our products and we expect the majority of this interest to be turned into jobs.

VISITOR TESTIMONIALS
I recently moved to Mackay and thought this event was unreal! It exceeded my expectations. There were may more caravans and stands than I anticipated. My biggest regret was not allocating enough time to see and enjoy all of the Expo. I will take my time next year and ensure I see everything this great show has to offer!
We thoroughly enjoyed our three hour walk around – could’ve spent the whole day!
It was a great event. The exhibitors were friendly and products were great value.
Was a lovely morning spent at the Expo, perfect weather. Watched Ronnie cook up a tasty damper, enjoyed a cold Frosty Mango drink, bought a few little things and checked out some Camper Trailers.
The event was great! Great range of exhibitors.
A good event to showcase the latest gear.
Great variety to cover everyone’s interests.
