We are thrilled to have Tim Campbell appearing again as Master of Ceremonies for the Travellers Choice Conference.

One of Australia's most versatile and much-loved entertainers, Tim is a star of both stage and screen, having had leading roles on Home and Away, House Husbands and Big Sky, hosting national prime time shows including Celebrity Singing Bee, Wheel of Fortune, National Bingo Night and Postcards, as well as appearing in stage shows Wicked, Rent and Shout! 

In 2023, Tim and husband Anthony Callea accomplished a sold out national concert tour to critical acclaim. Their current tour, The Songs of Elton & George sees them play to sold out shows across the country, including orchestral shows at The Sydney Opera House and Melbourne’s Hamer Hall.

When he's not Dancing With the Stars or entertaining on Channel 9's Carols By Candlelight, Tim is enjoying a quiet, easy going cocktail at home - his social media may tell a different story!
