The City of Rockingham has been selected as a finalist in two major categories for the 2022 Perth Airport WA Tourism Awards.
Now in its 50th year, the WA Tourism Awards shines a light on businesses making a significant contribution to the state's tourism industry.
The City has been selected as a finalist in the Excellence in Local Government Award for Tourism and Tourism Marketing and Campaigns categories for its Rediscover Rockingham campaigns.
Also selected as finalists for the 2022 awards are the city’s Rotary Club of Palm Beach’s Channel 7 Rockingham Beach Club and the Rockingham Visitor Centre.
The City of Rockingham’s Deputy Mayor Hayley Edwards said the City was excited to be a part of the WA Tourism Awards again.
“The active pursuit of tourism and economic development is a key aspiration in our Strategic Community Plan, and the ongoing delivery of the key actions in our Tourist Destination Strategy 2019 – 2024 have been integral to ensuring the City returns to the most prestigious tourism awards event in WA,” Miss Edwards said.
“These actions, and in particular our Rediscover Rockingham destination marketing campaigns, have showcased the stunning array of experiences that are on offer in Rockingham.
“Our City is known as the place where the coast comes to life, and to see multiple selections of organisations across Rockingham shows the high regard our tourism sector is held in.”
The winners of the 2022 WA Tourism Awards will be announced on Saturday November 5.
