TRENZ 2023 is underway!

Aotearoa New Zealand’s most significant international business-to-business travel and trade event – TRENZ – is underway in ŌŒtautahi Christchurch following a formal welcome for delegates from Ngai Tūāhuriri yeterday evening.

During four days of appointments, presentations, activities and networking functions for 1500 delegates, more than 300 New Zealand tourism businesses showcase their products and services to more than 330 high quality international Buyers from 25 markets.

The high-quality buyers are here to reacquaint themselves with what New Zealand has to offer and purchase accommodation, transport and activities to include in brochures, websites and itineraries for the coming international holiday seasons.

“How special this is that we get to spend the next few days renewing existing relationships, discovering new ones, and doing lots of quality business for New Zealand,” TIA chief executive Rebecca Ingram said at the opening function for TRENZ.

“Hosting TRENZ is another fabulous milestone for our city, and we are excited to be showcasing one of the world’s newest cities to you,” said Ali Adams, the CEO of host city agency ChristchurchNZ.

“The theme underpinning TRENZ 2023 is tūhura, meaning discover, bring to light, unearth, open up, explore, investigate – which really is what travel is about. Every visitor embarks on their own journey of discovery – unearthing their New Zealand – and making memories that shape them forever,” says Rebecca.

“TRENZ plays an important role in the recovery of New Zealand’s valuable tourism industry, it ensures that New Zealand is well positioned on a world stage.”

TRENZ runs at Te Pae Christchurch Convention Centre from today until May 11.
