Business Events Victoria (BEV) and Business Events Mornington Peninsula (BEMP) are delighted to announce its successful bid to host the Thermomix Leadership Group Annual Horizons Conference on the picturesque Mornington Peninsula in March 2024.
The Horizons Conference is a national annual conference that has been hosted in different regional and capital cities across Australia. Next year’s conference will be a momentous occasion for regional Victoria as it was selected from a competitive field of other regional destinations within Australia.
Thermomix selected the Mornington Peninsula to be the prestigious host location for the three-day event, which will attract 200 delegates to the region, a total of 600 hotel room nights booked and deliver an impressive economic impact of over $270,000 for the local community.
Danielle Lyon, Event Project Manager for Thermomix said:
“We are thrilled to be bringing our Thermomix Leadership group to the Mornington Peninsula next year for our annual Horizons Conference. This idyllic location has it all, from five-star accommodation suitable for large groups, to award-winning restaurants, wineries and activities all within arm’s reach. Business Events Victoria and Business Events Mornington Peninsula were quick to answer our brief and tailored a diverse range of options, making it an easy choice to make the Mornington Peninsula the backdrop to next year’s event.”
The Thermomix Leadership Group will enjoy a luxury and hospitality experience at their accommodation based at the prestigious RACV Cape Schanck Resort. Delegates will have a full itinerary travelling across the Mornington Peninsula visiting iconic locations including Peninsula Hot Springs for a team-building adventure and The Baths, for their welcome event. The program will also feature visits to world-class food and beverage selections across the region.
