The Superior Soiree at HSW will send-off Marinas24 delegates after two fulling days of conferencing and exhibition. To be held overlooking the Brisbane River at Howard Smith Wharves, the final dinner is again set to cap off another successful event allowing delegates to relax and enjoy each other's company.

John Hogan, CEO Superior Jetties is excited to sponsor this event noting, "The closing dinner at Marinas22 was the highlight of that event, when friendships were cemented, and new contacts made. We recognised some wonderful industry contributors, enjoyed some great entertainment, and importantly, had a lot of laughs - everyone left on a high. We want to ensure that Marinas24 can close with the same fun and goodwill, and I am delighted that Superior Jetties will be part of making that happen."

To avoid missing out, delegates should purchase tickets to the Soiree when registering for the conference. Additional guest tickets can be purchased on for those not attending as conference delegates, to enable partners and other work colleagues to attend. Best to book before the close of Early Bird on 15 March.

On confirming the sponsorship, Suzanne Davies MIA CEO commented, "Superior Jetties, MIA's Gold Sponsor, has been a great supporter of our industry for nearly two decades. We thank them again for stepping up to ensure that our industry can celebrate its achievements in style. It is sure to be another fantastic evening filled with plenty of laughter".

The Superior Soiree Afterparty will be at Mr Percival's Overwater Bar, at HSW and under the Story Bridge. A stylish bar, taking its cues from European beach clubs, Mr Percival's will enable delegates to take in unsurpassed views of Brisbane's cityscape.
