Overview

The world’s first ever Instagram relay is happening on Sunday, September 27, to celebrate World Tourism Day. Launching in Samoa at sunrise, the #helloworldRELAY will move across the planet like an enormous Mexican wave, concluding in the Cook Islands at sunset, 36 hours later. More than 80 top-shot photographers will be taking the lead, Instagramming destinations between sunrise and sunset.

But the relay isn’t only for pros. Instagrammers of all kinds and aspirations are invited to get on board. Simply turn up at the scheduled Instameet nearest you. Sydney’s will, naturally, be all about the Harbour views: meet at Hyatt boardwalk (next to Hickson Road Reserve) at 3pm and make your way to Mrs Macquarie’s Chair.

Can’t make it? Despair not. You can watch all the action online. Prepare for a 36-hour visual feast, taking in Saigon’s steamy streets, Paris’s romantic landmarks, Switzerland’s highest mountains, Myanmar’s mystical monasteries, New York’s Brooklyn Bridge and Oman’s spectacular Mountain of the Sun.

Keep up with #helloworldRELAY developments via Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
