You're Invited! Join Us At A 2025 Travel Show!

It is a valuable learning experience to meet travel intenders, answer their questions about New York State destinations, and share possible itinerary ideas. With this in mind, we are inviting NYSTIA members to join us in the Tourism Champions Booth at travel shows throughout the year. We generally have at least two exhibitor passes available per day per show. Join us for a day or for the full event! 

As we begin the NYSTIA's 2025 Travel Show Schedule, I also want to share the list of shows we are currently confirmed to attend in 2025. We are actively looking to add events to our schedule and I will share updates when shows are added.
