fered, such as a complete package
trip for two to Australia with
Quantas Airways and Pacesetter.

Canadians Holidays will give
consumers a chance to win two
tickets to London with theatre
tickets and hotels included.

Other top. prizes include a
cruise, a ski trip and two air tick-
ets to Florida with a rental car.

The Passport Game will take
consumers around the Forum
Building and for the winners there
will be another major prize.

David Savage, president ef
Great Canadian Travel Shows,
operators of the Vancouver Travel
Show, said: ‘‘Most major cities
have a consumer travel show and

Vancouver has clearly demon-
strated that it wants one too.

“We are delighted with the in-
dustry support in taking up all of
our space and are confident that
we will have a full house of con-
sumers as well.

“They will find the Vancouver
Travel Show brimming with ideas
for where tc go, they will be
stimulated, have fun, and of
course we have a tremendous ar-
ray of prizes to be won.””

Marsari will open the Vancouver
Travel Show, hours 11 a.m. io 6

ings.
