If your working week could do with a shot of inspiration (preferably chased by a Margaret River cabernet), clear your diary for Wednesday 30 July at 10 am AEST. Yes, I know—it’s a webinar. But this one involves Jetstar flights, fine wine, and the tantalising prospect of winning a trip to one of Western Australia’s most intoxicating regions. Literally and figuratively.
Tourism Western Australia, bless them, is hosting a 30-minute online event designed to whisk travel agents away—virtually at least—to the state’s dazzling array of festivals and happenings. It’s short, sharp, and well worth it, as they say in Bunbury.
But this isn’t just any old PowerPoint parade. It’s a front-row seat to the Pair’d Margaret River Region Festival, a sensorial spectacle running from 20 to 23 November 2025, where world-class wine flows like the Leeuwin Current and food is crafted with the sort of reverence usually reserved for symphony orchestras or Test cricket.
Expect wine pairings that flirt with genius, music that soars higher than a Qantas Dreamliner, and food with more personality than a Fremantle market stallholder. And no, this isn’t hyperbole—it’s Western Australia’s answer to la dolce vita, with a slight eucalyptus twist.
Joining the session is a guest speaker from Pair’d—someone with the inside scoop on turning this gourmet gala into a group itinerary your clients will thank you for. Possibly with gifts. Definitely with repeat bookings.
Now, if you’re thinking, “Sounds nice, but my clients aren’t fans of regional faffing, “ let me stop you there. Jetstar now flies direct from Sydney and Melbourne to Busselton Margaret River Airport, which means no more Perth layovers, no more hire car horror stories, and no more trying to explain what Busselton is famous for (hint: it’s not just the jetty).
Oh—and did I mention that attendees go into the draw to win return Jetstar flights for two? That’s right. You and a mate could be soaking up the South West sun with a glass of local chardy, pondering whether to visit a cellar door, a truffle farm, or stay horizontal on a vineyard lawn chair.
This isn’t just a webinar—it’s your golden boarding pass to WA’s glittering event calendar. Whether you’re a travel advisor needing new group inspiration or just fancy hearing about somewhere that isn’t Bali for once, this 30-minute session will feed your brain and your booking potential.
So register now—as any seasoned agent will tell you, the early bird gets the upgrade.
