WA cooks up tourism plan
MASTERCHEF could be headed for Western Australia in the latest bid to attract tourists to the state.
Negotiations are reportedly under way with the producers of the television show to bring 85 people to WA, including the contestants, judges and crew.
Premier Mark McGowan would not confirm the reported $1.2 million price tag but said the State Government’s goal was to attract more events and marketing opportunities to WA.
“It’s innovative and, to be fair, compared to a TV advertising campaign it’s relatively affordable,” he told 6PR radio yesterday.
