Tourism marketing agency, Gate 7, has announced the expansion of its existing work with the Philadelphia Convention & Visitors Bureau (Philadelphia CVB), being appointed to manage its public relations in Australia.

Having worked together in a tourism development and trade marketing capacity since 2017, the expanded remit will see Gate 7 manage public relations, including media engagement, familiarisation programs and press office.

Founder & Managing Director at Gate 7, Jo Palmer, said: "The Philadelphia CVB has been a valued partner of Gate 7 for many years, and we are excited to be taking on this new challenge. As air lift to the east cost of the U.S. continues to expand with more direct flights than ever, it’s the perfect time for Aussies to start thinking about a trip to Philly!"
