Emily BourkeGUEST
... are they coming to South Australia, but they're tripling their services in coming here.
Leith ForrestHOST
Are you able to have conversations with the industry as a whole? Imagine if you could time it, Minister, where you had the cruise ships coming into Adelaide while the MotoGP was on, or while the Fringe and the Adelaide Festival were on, so it's a win-win.

We have the main festival concerts, but then you have an equally important social project for vulnerable people of some sort.
