Tasmanian Hospitality Review - August / September 2023

Membership Update

We know we are firmly in the middle of the Winter months when Mt Wellington is covered in snow and its freezing cold! With the colder weather we know our members have seen a significant downturn in trade especially regionally. We have seen our occupancy numbers decrease again for the months of May and June, however we are hopeful once everyone returns from their European holidays they once again support our great member venues. Our membership team has been travelling statewide to assist members with a range of matters such as Licence applications/renewals, planning permits, introductions to suppliers, networking events and discussing ways to minimise the growing costs of business. Judging for our awards has now been completed and the venue and time for the awards night has been locked in, you should all have received the save a date for 4th of October at the Botanical Gardens Hobart. Tickets will be available in the coming weeks. Our new website is due to be launched towards the end of the year as well as a brand-new corporate supplier guide featuring all our partners with some exclusive offers.

The Membership team was fortunate enough to attend some sensational events in the last couple of weeks. The Agricultured dinner at the Grain of the Silos restaurant in Launceston is one of the best events of the year, credit to Massimo and his team for an amazing evening. Special shoutout to our members Paul and Bernadette Bennett from Ashgrove cheese who provided the cheese for the event. Hotel Grand Chancellor Hobart once again amazed guests with their annual ‘Chancellor Revelry’ event. The event showcased the best cuisines from around the world as we travelled through the seven continents. The unveiling of their state-of-the-art screen will elevate their conference room as we approach conference season in the later months. Congratulations to Ralph and his team on an outstanding event. We look forward to an exciting end of the year for our members. The THA has a few key events to be finalised in the coming weeks, please keep a look out in your emails and social platforms for your invites.
