The Visit USA Expo 2023 roadshow rolled on to Melbourne’s Pullman on the Park hotel where agents enjoyed an array of show-stopping drinks and nibbles, eye-catching showgirls and a sparkling dress plus the always-popular MC Richard Reid.

The US Consul General for Victoria, Kathleen Lively, welcomed advisors and was thrilled by the energy for US travel.

“Everyone at the Visit USA Expo plays an important role in encouraging more Australians to visit and explore the United States – to experience our vibrant cities, stunning natural scenery, outdoor activities, cultural sites, food, music, shopping, nightlife and sporting events.  We rely on all of you and appreciate all you do.”
