AIME goes local for opening reception
MELBOURNE – This year’s Welcome Reception for the Asia-Pacific Incentives & Meetings Expo (AIME) will be held at The Goods Shed South.
Once a landmark public transport building, The Goods Shed South will transform into a series of unique spaces which present Melbourne’s diversity, from established cultural experiences to emerging subcultures.
According to Sandra Chipchase, CEO of the Melbourne Convention + Visitors Bureau (MCVB), the event is centred around city life from a local’s perspective.
“This year’s AIME Welcome Reception will provide a microcosm of Melbourne local life in 2010, bringing together various nightlife, culinary and entertainment experiences from throughout Melbourne into the one exciting space.â€
The creative concept, staging and design for the AIME 2010 Welcome Reception has been organised with the assistance of key event sponsors, Staging Connections and Atlantic Group.

More than 2,300 people are expected to attend the AIME 2010 Welcome Reception at The Goods Shed from 6pm – 9pm on Monday March 1, 2010.
Tickets for the Welcome Reception can be booked online at: www.aime.com.au
AIME will be held at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, Australia, March 2-3.
