Cloudland’s Crystal Palais was the place to be last night for Brisbane’s travel industry as they celebrated the first Thirsty Thursdays of 2012.

A record number of prizes were given away including an 8GB iPod Touch courtesy of Fairchild Multimedia, four nights at a Club Med Resort complete with a $200 VISA Travel Card and a ten day ‘Very Vietnam’ tour courtesy of Thirsty Thursdays’ newcomers On The Go Tours.

A reunion-like feel filled the air with the event one of the first in Brisbane’s travel calendar for the year.

Thirsty Thursdays will head to Sydney on 1 March with the first VISA exclusive event of the year.
