Registration now open for Granite Travel Trade Expos

Registration is now open for the Granite Travel Trade Expos which are returning this spring to Ontario and expanding to Atlantic Canada.

These regional travel trade events aim to connect industry suppliers and top-producing travel agents in a setting that is more intimate than traditional, larger trade shows. The format allows for in-person interactive consultations and presentations.

The spring Expos bring the total number of shows to 15 locations across Canada, which include eight more expos in the fall. Bahia Principe Hotels and Resorts returns as hotel sponsor and St Kitts Tourism Authority as destination sponsor. Attendance and parking are free and agents can register by clicking here. The first 50 agents who arrive at each of the 7 Granite Travel Trade Spring Expos will receive a $20 MasterCard, courtesy of Princess Hotels and Resorts.
