Locals urged to get involved in new tourism campaign encouraging visitors to ‘stay and play' in Geraldton
What is the perfect way to illustrate why visitors should 'stay and play' in Geraldton? That's the question Visit Geraldton is posing as part of its latest tourism marketing campaign, encouraging people to stay a little bit longer and explore the impressive hospitality scene. The Stay and Play campaign aims to attract travellers from the North West for a long weekend in Geraldton via Nexus Airlines, as well as urging locals to share what they love best about the region through a photo competition. City of Greater Geraldton mayor Jerry Clune said Geraldton was the perfect hub for families and couples wanting to visit and experience the Mid West. 'Whether it's our world-class foreshore, stunning coastline or inviting weather — Geraldton is not only the perfect place for families but also for couples wanting to experience our incredible food scene, culture and so much more,' he said. 'Our campaign will focus on distributing high-impact destination marketing content across multiple channels and collaborating closely with our partners at Australia's Coral Coast and Nexus Airlines. 'We are also urging Geraldtonians to get involved by entering the Stay and Play Photography Competition, which invites people to submit the perfect shot that illustrates why families should come and experience our amazing city.' Submissions to the photography competition will be selected to be used as destination marketing content. The prizes up for grabs include a $1500 Nexus Airlines voucher for first place, a $1000 Buy Local Greater Geraldton gift card for second and $500 Buy Local gift card for third. The Stay and Play Photography Competition is open until 4pm on Monday, June 30. To enter and for terms and conditions, head to the city's website.

The Geraldton Food and Beverage Trail is a collaborative effort between Shore Leave Festival, Midwest Food Alliance, Euphorium and the City of Greater Geraldton. The online map features 37 local bars and eateries, providing addresses, phone numbers and websites. The embedded Google maps link allows users to easily and effectively get directions from home or out and about through their smart devices. Deputy mayor Natasha Colliver said she was thrilled to see the idea come to fruition 'Geraldton punches well above its weight when it comes to cafes, bars and restaurants,' she said. 'This initiative allows restaurants and bars to be featured on a single map, making them easier to find for visitors and encouraging locals to try out new places.' The map is now available on the Visit Geraldton website and aims to encourage residents to explore their city's food scene while helping visitors find the best spots to eat and drink.
