COTA NT seniors expo 2017
Invitation from COTA to hold an activity, stall (non-food) or performance
We are now inviting SENIORS EXPO registrations from community groups, service providers, government agencies, businesses and other stakeholders for our award-winning SENIORS EXPO.* We encourage groups to not only showcase their activities but to provide seniors attending EXPO with an opportunity to have-a-go and join in. We encourage stallholders to provide plenty of information and time to talk, plus demonstrations, incentives, competitions and more – this helps make EXPO celebratory, age-friendly, unique and truly unmissable.
date: Friday 2 June 2017 time : 10am to 2pm (set up between 8am to 9am)
venue: Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory, Conacher Street, Darwin
cost: free entry for all EXPO visitors, plus a free Greenfields Living morning tea
Expert sausage sizzlers from Bunnings will be back again at EXPO 2017!

You are asked to provide a brief description of the stall or performance you intend to showcase (this may be used in promotional literature – up to 25 words). Please note: COTA NT will also use the information you provide as part of your entry on their online directory (cotant.org.au/information/) – pages dedicated to providing Territory seniors with information about the support, services, activities and businesses available in the Northern Territory.
Stallholder fees (pitch only)
We ask stallholders to contribute towards the cost of staging SENIORS EXPO and have a fee structure which relates to the capacity of the organisation. Community/hobby/leisure groups are once again being offered a free pitch. Please tick the relevant box on the application form.
EXPO provides an unique opportunity for seniors to come together
BYO
Attendees of past EXPOs will know that there is a BYO component to EXPO, which unables COTA to keep participation costs as low as possible. We advise the following as a minimum:
- BYO gazebo/shade structure, trestle table and 2 chairs (approx. 2m x 2m space).
- Chairs for stall visitors and esky/drinking water and cups also advised.
- **Please note: some community groups may be accommodated in the community pavilion and will not require a gazebo (to be advised).
- Bring all other requirements, we encourage creative interactive stalls
Deadline
Sing out about your club, group, organisation or business at EXPO!
