“We have changed our footprint and our name to the 2016 North Coast and The Legendary Pacific Coast Tourism Awards and will stage the gala presentation night in Port Macquarie on the 30 th July,” said NCDN and TLPC Executive Officer, Ms Belinda Novicky.
“The North Coast Destination network has attracted the interest and support of these other popular regions because it is currently the largest and strongest regional tourism authority in NSW.
“Newcastle, Port Stephens and The Hunter are part of The Legendary Pacific Coast (the major touring route from Sydney to Brisbane) that is owned and operated by the North Coast Destination Network.
“It makes sense that we embrace our TLPC partners for these popular awards that are focused on building business, regional pride and networking among our peers. We are all very much looking forward to the expanded event.”
