Hear from Our Past Attendees:

This has to be the BEST Meet The Buyer Event ever. Huge thank you to Heerum Fleary and the guys at TICKEAT. Kudos to you Heerum, I say it often understanding some people disagree… business is people, this is the perfect display! Buyers are genuinely relaxed and interested, and a great opportunity for CUZENA in the travel sector space. Meet other brands in the same space…Follow up meetings arranged, exciting times. Thank you.

I recently attended a dinner event organized by Tickeat. The experience was nothing short of exceptional. The event provided a perfect setting for meaningful interactions, making it enjoyable and highly productive. The dinner itself was delightful, but what truly stood out was the thoughtfully created environment, and the attention to every detail was evident in every aspect, from the welcoming ambience to the seamless facilitation of conversations with the buyers. I left the evening feeling grateful for the opportunity to engage with such a diverse group of buyers in such a warm and inviting atmosphere.

This week we attended a 'dinner with the buyer' event by TICKEAT. An amazing welcome by a fantastic host, Heerum Fleary, provided a close-up opportunity to connect with industry contacts which is unheard of in any other setting. A genuinely unique way of bringing people and business together. Insightful, productive, enlightening and innovative. Would highly recommend utilising this great platform and Heerum's dedication to the industry.
