Australia to host biggest ever football event in January - the 2015 Asian Cup

The 16 best teams in Asia will meet in Australia in January 2015 to compete for the AFC Asian Cup, the most sought-after trophy in Asian football.

Australia will host the 2015 AFC Asian Cup. The tournament kicks off in Melbourne with hosts Australia featuring in the opening match. 

EnviroFleet Corporate Transfers will be busy driving many corporate and leisure clients to both the games and other major tourist attractions.

“Booking early is the way to go, as it will be an extremely busy period. “Not only is this the biggest football event ever to take place in Australia, and with many neighbouring and important business/trade countries, but it’s also the traditional peak season of summer,” says Managing Director, EnviroFleet Corporate Transfers, Steven Dimas.

There are of course many other major events taking place around these months, including the Australian Open Tennis and Formula One Grand Prix.

“Melbourne and Sydney will be buzzing cities during the Asian Cup. It will be a fantastic tournament that I am sure Australia will do very well,” adds Dimas, who also used to play football professionally.

Sixteen teams from across Asia have qualified for the event, including seven of Australia’s top trading partners. No doubt tourism numbers will surge during this period, with many combining the event with Australia’s many other attractions.

Many business events will also take place during this period, as Austrade and State governments try to make the most of the opportunity. Indeed, the Asian Cup presents an exciting opportunity to celebrate and honour the place of sport in Australia and further strengthen the relationships between participating countries, and trading partners.
