More than 10,000 people showed up for global travel and experiences company Klook's first ever 'Travel Fest' event on Saturday to hear the latest travel tips from industry insiders and social media creators Kat and Deja Clark, and Sofia Ligeros.

The event, hosted by TV personality Faustina 'Fuzzy' Agolley, took over Sydney's Carriageworks with a 90s console games theme, set with virtual destination and experience-themed games and challenges across several 'worlds'. Participants had the chance to win trips to Vietnam, Japan, Thailand, and Malaysia among other prizes. Over 8,300 travel offers were redeemed in the Klook app and over 1,300 travel prizes were collected on the day of the event.

The event concluded with an 'after-dark' adults-only session featuring 90s DJ tunes, cocktails, and food from Cultured Crust and Satay Brothers. Event partners included Disneyland California Resort, Walt Disney World, the Hong Kong Tourism Board, Korea Tourism Organisation, Los Angeles Tourism, Travel Nevada, Mandai, Rail Europe and the Philippine Department of Tourism. The event was also supported by Air Asia, Jetstar, VietJet, American Tourister, and Bali Buddies.

"After months of planning and working with our destination partners to deliver an exciting day for our biggest Klook fans, we were thrilled to see so many people flocking to each 'world' to enjoy the fun and games," said Klook's Director of Oceania Marketing, Diana Vidovic.

"It was amazing to see both adults and children getting involved with everything from Hong Kong's dumpling toss to eliminating aliens in the Nevada desert while taking home some top prizes. With over 8,300 travel offers redeemed in the Klook app and over 1,300 travel prizes collected on the day itself, the event was a huge success. We are already geared up and looking forward to bringing an even bigger and better Klook Travel Fest next year."
