The Port Macquarie-Hastings Sensational Seniors Expo is on again in 2019, and now is the time for community groups and businesses to register your interest to exhibit at the biggest seniors focused event on the Mid North Coast.

The expo will be held at Panthers Port Macquarie between 9am to 2pm on Monday, February 18, and is a great opportunity for retirees, or those about to retire, to access information on activities and services available to seniors across the region.

More than 80 organisations and community groups showcased their products and services to a record breaking 1345 seniors at this year’s expo, with even more expected to attend in 2019.

Group manager Lucilla Marshall said that Port Macquarie-Hastings Council want to introduce a wider variety of stalls at next year’s Sensational Seniors Expo.

“The Seniors Expo has operated in many forms over the years and has now grown to become an excellent showcase of local products, retirement services and recreational activities that cater specifically to our local seniors’ community,” Ms Marshall said.

“We had such a broad range of stall holders exhibiting at this year’s event, and we’re looking forward to some of our regular stallholders returning once again in 2019, as well as encouraging other local organisations and community groups that may not have exhibited before to get involved.

“The Sensational Seniors Expo is a great way for seniors to connect with local organisations and groups all under one roof, and is definitely one event not to be missed,” Ms Marshall said.

The Port Macquarie-Hastings Sensational Seniors Expo is free for stallholders and free entry for attendees.

Applications are being called for stallholders in the areas of travel, health and wellbeing, volunteer groups, recreational activities, hospitality services for seniors, retirement and lifestyle villages and government services.

The Port Macquarie-Hastings Sensational Seniors Expo is part of the NSW Seniors Festival, the largest celebration for people over 60, running from Wednesday, February 13-24, 2019.

“Our Seniors Expo celebrates and recognises the role that seniors play, and the contributions they make to the community, and I encourage anyone wishing to showcase their products and services to a captive local seniors audience to attend next year’s event,” added Ms Marshall.
