Macao to Serve Up New Campaign

style theatre in Macau

“Wake up with Macao” . . . that's the message which will warmly welcome daily commuters to Sydney's CBD next week.

From Monday to Friday (May 9-13) between 7am and 10am, office workers arriving at the bus terminal near bustling Wynyard Park will be able to warm to a complimentary cup of coffee as part of the Macao Government Tourism Office's campaign to promote its new slogan – Experience: Your Own Style.

Focus will also be on Macao's colourful calendar of festivals and events with consumers having the chance to win a sophisticated $2400 coffee maker and accompanying barista starting kit.

“We intend to showcase to passersby what Macao really has to offer as a holiday and business destination,” said Helen Wong, general manager of the Macao Government Tourism Office (Australia and New Zealand).

“A large colourfully decorated container will be in place with two baristas preparing and serving complimentary coffee in attractive cups to guests in promoting our new motto,” she said.

“About 100,000 Australians visit Macao each year and we believe such a promotion will further boost the number of holidaymakers.”
