There was double the fun at Tourism Noosa’s annual networking event with the Noosa Tri celebrating its 40th anniversary at the Noosa Heads Surf Life Saving Club on Tuesday 31 October.
Just over 100 industry members attended and heard presentations from Ironman Managing Director, Oceania, Geoff Meyers, Acting Group Executive Events, Tourism and Events Queensland, Peter Hunt and dual Olympian and three-time Noosa Triathlon Champion Courtney Atkinson about why the event means so much to Noosa.
It was a special tribute to this world-renowned event that started with just 130 competitors and has since injected hundreds of millions of dollars into Noosa’s economy, welcomed thousands of visitors and locals to the starting lines, and raised millions of dollars for charities.
