Women in Tourism – The Power of Pink Lunch united the industry in support of Breast Cancer Awareness

Women in Tourism – The Power of Pink Lunch was held on Friday, 3 October 2025, at the Mercure Gold Coast Resort, bringing together industry leaders, colleagues, and friends for an afternoon of connection and purpose. Hosted by the vibrant Bianca Dye, the sold-out event celebrated strength, community, and solidarity while raising awareness and vital funds for Breast Cancer.

Guests enjoyed a beautifully curated two-course gourmet lunch paired with a three-hour beverage package, alongside lively entertainment that set the tone for an uplifting afternoon. A highlight of the day was the inspiring speaker panel, featuring tourism industry leaders and a breast cancer survivor who shared powerful stories that resonated deeply with the audience.

The event also provided an invaluable opportunity for networking, with women across the tourism sector uniting in a warm, supportive environment. Guests arrived dressed in shades of pink, reflecting the spirit of the cause, while raffle proceeds proudly supported the Gold Coast Hospital Foundation. The Power of Pink Lunch was a celebration of friendship, empowerment, and the strength of community in action.
