LODGING AND TRAVEL
ICVM 2023 recommends arrival no later than 27 July and departure no earlier than 2 August.
Tourism and Events Queensland and Tourism Australia offer potentially useful travel information.
​
The ICVM 2023 Organizers are not able to endorse any specific lodging options, but we have negotiated discounts at a few 4-5 star hotels (approximately 300-400 AUD per night). There are less expensive lodging options in Cairns that delegates will need to research themselves, such as backpacker hostels and budget hotels.
For hotels, hostels, temporary apartment/flat rentals etc., BEWARE OF SCAMS AND HIDDEN FEES. Be careful when you pay the full cost of lodging ahead of time. Paying ahead can yield the best deals, but make certain the offer is legitimate. Check cancellation and refund policies. Check whether the quoted rates include the 10% Australian GST and other taxes and fees. Check whether the quoted rates are in US Dollars or Australian Dollars.
