Shadow Tourism Minister Scott Bacon has reiterated Labor’s commitment to backing major events.

“We’ve just had the best reminder possible, through Dark Mofo, of why events tourism is crucial to Tasmania’s future.

“It’s crucial we attract a wide range events right across Tasmania, especially events that support our regions.

“I urge the Government to be open and transparent with Tasmanians around decisions to support or not support events.

“Event organisers and curators need to be confident that the funding process is fair and open.”
