Granite Travel Trade Expos announced the Fall dates of its smaller-market Expos.
“We’ve seen incredible growth with the last two seasons of our shows, and many suppliers are already committed to return this year,” says Bradley Dean, Granite Productions. “We designed the Granite Travel Trade Expos to be an intimate and engaging experience for both vendors and travel agent attendees. To maintain this experience, capacity and vendor space are limited. We don’t want to be the biggest, just the most effective.”
The Fall 2024 schedule is as follows:
Western Canada:
Winnipeg, MB: Oct. 7, 2024
Victoria, BC: Oct. 9, 2024
Langley, BC: Oct. 10, 2024

***Travel Agents note that registration to attend does not open until one month before each Expo at www.granitetravelexpos.com/agents.
The regional travel trade events series are designed to connect industry suppliers and top-producing travel agents, facilitating in-person interactive consultations. In each city, a presentation series featuring 15-minute segments by suppliers will be followed by a trade show, dinner, and prize giveaways.
Bahia Principe Hotels and Resorts and St. Kitts Tourism are returning title sponsors. Sensira Resorts & Spa is the Food Sponsor, and Catalonia Hotels and Resorts is once again providing $20 prepaid Mastercards to the first 50 agents who arrive at each event.
