Tourism Solomons has been announced as the Gold Sponsor for Temotu Bash 2.0, the province’s major cultural and tourism festival scheduled to take place in Lata from June 8 to 10.
The sponsorship was announced this week by Easternder Travel Group, organisers of the annual event, following the signing of the sponsorship agreement at the Tourism Solomons Office.
The partnership highlights growing national support for the promotion of Temotu Province as an emerging tourism destination known for its rich culture, natural beauty and unique island experiences.
As part of its support, Tourism Solomons will conduct awareness programmes in five communities across Santa Cruz and the Reef Islands ahead of the festival.
The organisation will also continue its engagement throughout the three-day event to ensure communities are informed, involved and prepared to participate in the activities.
Owner of Easternder Travel Group and organiser of Temotu Bash 2.0, Cedric Takilmwa Williams, welcomed the partnership and thanked Tourism Solomons for supporting the event.
He said the sponsorship reflects a genuine commitment towards developing tourism opportunities in Temotu Province.
“Tourism Solomons’ support demonstrates genuine commitment to the growth of tourism in Temotu and plays an important role in strengthening the festival’s reach and impact,” Williams said.
Temotu Bash 2.0 follows the success of last year’s inaugural event and is expected to attract visitors from around the country.
The festival programme will include performances by national guest artists, local entertainers, cultural showcases and various community activities.
A major highlight of the event will be the launch of the Discover Temotu Package, a curated three-day visitor experience aimed at showcasing the province’s cultural heritage and natural attractions.
Easternder Travel Group acknowledged Tourism Solomons for its confidence in the province’s tourism potential and for supporting the continued growth of Temotu Bash as a signature event for Temotu Province.
