The
first ever show in the UK dedicated to life Down Under is expected to attract
thousands of visitors eager to get a taste of what Australia and New Zealand
have to offer.
The new event, Down Under Live! will take place from the 20-22 March 2009 at
ExCel, in London's
Docklands.
In the past year, 23,223 UK residents permanently emigrated to Australia, which
was an increase of 31% over a two-year period, and 15,000 people emigrated to
New Zealand, making them among the most sought after migration destinations.
The show aims to allow visitors to experience a true taste of Australia and New Zealand while gaining essential
information on how to make the move of their lives.
The show will include appearances by celebrity chefs, a cookery school, climbing wall and photo competition, as well as a
host of top name travel and migration exhibitors.
A dedicated migration area will allow visitors to assess their suitability for migration, and seek expert advice and information from migration agents, recruitment agencies and state governments at the show.
Lisa Doerr, Managing Director of Merricks Media, who is organising the show, said, "Our own research has shown that those planning to emigrate will travel to Australia and New Zealand at least two or three times prior to migrating.
"Travel and migration are inextricably linked and with the UK's growing passion for Australia and New Zealand, today's travellers are tomorrow's potential migrants," Ms Doerr added.
