TESTIMONIALS
"I would like to say well done and thank you for organising such a colourful Halloween event this year. We had a lot of hotel guests commenting on it. Some of our younger guests even remarked that the main reason why they came to spend a weekend in Surfers Paradise was to see the activation next door. I’ve been working in our complex for over five years, but I don’t recall ever seeing the retail area as busy as it was on Halloween weekend this year. I’m looking forward to seeing what other creative events you will come up with in the future. I would like to say well done and thank you for organizing such a colorful Halloween event this year.

You did an amazing job, and we are very happy with how the weekend went from a trading perspective. It was a great improvement on last year, and we have had nothing but great feedback from everyone that came along both nights, and all the staff really enjoyed it.“ Thanks again on an amazing weekend.
