ABOUT HGA

Hospitality & Gaming Australasia (HGA) is the hospitality industry’s premier trade show/expo for dining, accommodation, entertainment and gaming. It is an inclusive event designed by industry leaders in response to industry demand for a high quality, high profile and comprehensive showcase event of the latest ideas, products, trends and directions for all segments of the hospitality industry.

HGA also provides a valuable opportunity for a range of industry representatives to network with peers, key suppliers and experts to build relationships, research new products and services, make informed purchasing decisions, discuss innovative approaches and discover new ways to boost business performance.

“Queensland’s hotels, community clubs and hospitality businesses have prospered in recent years.  Not by accident, but as a result of strong investment in training, staff, facilities and promotion by business owners and managers who know business, products and priorities.  When operating or building a successful hospitality business, superior knowledge is a key element of success. Attendance at the HGA Trade Show represents an easy opportunity for business owners, managers and contributors to see the latest in what’s available across our industry, to observe what excites the crowd, and to share views and gain insights from a wide range of industry experts.  In today’s rapidly changing hospitality world, it is more important than ever that venue operators are fully informed about new products and trends, industry issues, and cutting edge marketing that protects and improves the bottom line.

For exhibitors, the HGA expo is the once-a-year opportunity to reach more than two thousand of Queensland’s hospitality industry leaders in one easy step.  Consistently, exhibitors and suppliers provide positive feedback about their HGA experience, and of the amount of direct or latent business that is triggered through attendance at the show.   For them, it’s a unique opportunity to engage with their clients and customers in a relaxed, open, manner, where important clients have a little more time on their hands than usual.  Overall, the HGA Trade Show allows suppliers and clients to engage in meaningful dialogue which stimulates business on both sides of the counter.”
