ACCOMMODATION UPDATE<br />
CHARLIE CUSH’S PRESENTATION ON THE<br />
BRISBANE FESTIVAL INCORPORATED<br />
FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHTS, EACH EVENT<br />
CREATIVELY DESIGNED TO ACCOMMODATE<br />
COVID SAFE PRACTICES<br />
Charlie Cush’s presentation on the Brisbane Festival<br />
incorporated festival highlights, each event creatively<br />
designed to accommodate COVID Safe practices. The<br />
roving pop-up performances of ‘Street Serenades’,<br />
which will visit an impressive 190 suburbs around<br />
Brisbane, emphasised the many ways in which the<br />
<strong>2020</strong> festival is being taken to the people, rather than<br />
the other way around.<br />
Pending the current Queensland social-distancing<br />
restrictions being amended, the Brisbane Festival will<br />
take place on 4-26 <strong>Sep</strong>tember at a range of locations<br />
around Brisbane, with the majority of performers<br />
being Queensland-based artists. Hearing about the<br />
coming Brisbane Festival provided all of us with a<br />
very refreshing and uplifting dose of positive news for<br />
a change. Needless to say, we’re all looking forward<br />
to experiencing the festival and seeing how it may<br />
positively enhance hotel occupancies across Brisbane.<br />
Several more of our face to face Accommodation<br />
Division meetings are scheduled for the remainder of<br />
the year. Invitations have been extended to directors of<br />
sales and marketing in Brisbane and the Gold Coast<br />
as well as general managers across the state.<br />
If you wish to be a member of the Accommodation<br />
Division please get in contact at: accomm@qha.org.au<br />
We would be only too pleased to provide the support<br />
so many members have welcomed and appreciated in<br />
these unprecedented times.<br />
