The awards are aimed to encourage the wide array of Tourism, Events, Conference and Hospitality services on the Central Coast to participate and be recognised.
Thr rvrmy will be coordinated by the team at Business NSW who have shown excellence in operating the Regional Business Awards annually.
The awards are sponsored by Gosford Erina Business Chamber, (GEBC) using the funds transferred in 2023 from Central Coast Tourism Inc. (CCTI) and allocated according to the MOU that was in place when agreed to the transfer between GEBC and CCTI.
The MOU specified the funds are to contribute to the whole Central Coast region.
The awards are funded for the next two years, culminating in a large-scale Tourism Symposium to be held on the Central Coast in 2026.
With Tourism set to become the $91 Billion Dollar cornerstone of the NSW Economy, the accelerated growth is expected to provide a big economic windfall for regional communities, and the Central Coast is in a prime position to grow and support our current and future operators and activities.
The Awards program will price a further opportunity to showcase Central Coast Tourism.
