The news: Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre has launched a specialised event dining experience aimed at capturing India's rising business travel market. The venue is positioning itself specifically to cater to Indian corporate groups and conference delegates with customised food and beverage offerings.
Why it matters for MICE operators: Indian DMCs and PCOs working with international venues now have a direct signal that major Australian convention centres are actively competing for India-sourced business. This signals opportunity to position Melbourne as a destination for high-value corporate conferences and incentive travel. It also shows that international venues are investing in cultural customisation — something Indian operators should highlight to clients seeking destinations that understand their needs.
The takeaway: If you're pitching Australian destinations to Indian corporate clients, emphasise Melbourne's dedicated focus on Indian business traveler preferences and dietary requirements.
