Registration for Caribbean Travel Marketplace, the Caribbean’s largest marketing event, is opening August 10th. This year’s event will ring in 2018 with a new and a vibrant lineup of activities. Marketplace is coming back to the Puerto Rico Convention Center from January 30 to February 1, 2018.
Marketplace is the only event in the region that gathers the Caribbean tourism industry under one roof for two days of business meetings that match hotels and destinations with online travel agents, tour operators and Meetings, Incentives, Conventions and Exhibitions (MICE) planners through a busy program of thousands of pre-scheduled appointments.
“Caribbean Travel Marketplace is a marquee event that provides an excellent opportunity for stakeholders here to network with some of the world’s leading travel professionals and, more importantly, share what we offer on our islands to the world.” said Miguel Vega, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Puerto Rico Hotel & Tourism Association
In 2017, Caribbean Travel Marketplace, hosted by The Bahamas, attracted 114 buyer companies from 20 countries. More than 1,100 delegates from 31 countries participated in more than 10,000 pre-scheduled appointments.
