The first Bloom Event was held in October 2012 at the Shangri La Hotel, Cairns. The concept of Bloom came about when it was recognised that more information is needed in the area of preventative health. Much focus today is on raising awareness and early diagnosis whereas there are simple steps we can take to help prevent disease in the first place, and support the body’s natural healing process. Through delivering professional events such as Bloom we can share knowledge, educate ourselves, support each other and inspire vibrant, healthy living within our community. The day provides a wonderful opportunity in the beautiful tropical surrounds of the Cairns Colonial Club to connect and network with people who are keen to improve their health and wellbeing, or for those seeking support on their wellness journey.
“It is always a pleasure to participate in events like Bloom
as they match our philosophies on health and putting the best fuel into the body. Thanks for all the effort in making Bloom and The Organic Experience Tours happen.”
Michelle Bell-Turner, PR & Marketing Manager, Mungalli Creek Dairy
“I have nothing but praise for the enormous effort you made to bring the bloom expo together well done! I was really impressed with the amount of effort and content that went into the displays by the exhibitors. The training school had a very successful day we had 35 course packs that we handed out with the potential to generate 35 new students for 2014!“ Karen Huggett , Business Manager, At Ease Natural Therapies
“Loved it!!! Didn't want to leave but couldn't wait to get home to put things into practice”.
"Bloom was the first event sponsored by Paleo Cafe, about 1 week after we opened our doors. It was very professional with fantastic guest speakers and exhibitors. We had a fantastic stall set up with lots of information about the Paleo Cafe and what it had to offer. I was also given the opportunity to present our Paleo Cafe story with the audience. It was an excellent opportunity to create public awareness of the Paleo lifestyle and the Paleo Cafe. I spoke to hundreds of people, many of whom I now regularly see at the Paleo Cafe. The room was filled with positive engaging people with a passion for health and wellness. I thoroughly enjoyed the evening, not just as a sponsor but also as a spectator." Marlies Hobbs, Owner & Business Development Manager, Paleo Cafe
“We were really happy with the day and got to talk to a lot of people and it was a really good opportunity to talk to the other exhibitors there as well and start some good relationships with people in the other fields of the health industry.“ Alisha Gibson, Store Manager, Pease Street Pharmacy & Health Food Store
Just wanted to congratulate you again on your awesome expo. I can't imagine how much time you put into organising the event. It was a huge success and the buzz experienced by all was quite electric, inspiring and most definitely "feel good"! THANK YOU. Amanda Gale, Founder , Amanda Gale Physio
Bloom invites organisations that support our objectives to join us in helping to produce this unique and important community event. Sponsorship provides businesses, organisations, products and services with enhanced visibility among those who attend the Expo, as well as to a much larger audience leading up to the event. At the same time, sponsors make it possible for us to bring high profile guest speakers to Cairns and offer a quality event. As a sponsor of Bloom Expo, your business will benefit through significant exposure of your brand showcasing to all attendees and exhibitors, plus building valuable trust & loyalty in the community by setting a strong position as a leader in health & wellness.
