Reminder - GA Expo (Melb) Cancelled

Gardening Australia Expo (Melb) Cancelled

It is with great regret that we must advise that the Melbourne ABC Gardening Australia Expo, September 2 - 4, 2011 has been cancelled.

Unfortunately in the current economic climate the Expo has fallen significantly short of the exhibitor support required to ensure a sufficiently satisfying event for visitors.

This decision has not been made lightly. It was felt that it is much better to postpone this event for 2011, rather than disappoint visitors.

All visitors that have bought tickets online, or as a group booking will be notified and refunded.
