Network and build relationships with travel media and editors from across the U.S. and Canada. You can interact with media attendees throughout the conference activities, such as receptions and meal events, afternoon tours, and professional development sessions.
NATJA prides itself in providing top-notch professional development workshops for CVBs/DMOs at our annual conference. Past sessions at the conference include: Crisis Communications FAM Trips 101 Inclusive & Diverse Marketing Strategies The Editors Panel ...and more!
Meet 1-on-1 with media attendees at the Exhibitor Marketplace. You will receive a 10’x10′ space with tables and chairs to exhibit at our Marketplace. The Marketplace is the only event scheduled for media Thursday morning, allowing them the opportunity to focus on meeting you!
Conference registration includes 3-nights accommodations at the Moody Gardens Hotel Spa and Convention Center. NATJA coordinates hotel reservations on your behalf. Additionally, meals are included with your registration, beginning with the afternoon of the first day and ending with breakfast on the last day.
All conference attendees are invited to participate in the planned afternoon tours in and around Galveston Island at no additional cost. Attendees will have several choices and opportunities to learn all that Galveston has to offer!
Visit Galveston will coordinate airport transfers for attendees flying into or out of Houston Hobby Airport (HOU). Please note that if you fly into George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH), you may need to make your own transfer arrangements.
Do you have more than one representative that will attend? Business colleagues from the same DMO are welcome to join you! The Business Colleague Registration includes all of the same perks as regular registration, with a shared booth at the Marketplace, at a lower registration rate. The colleague must be accompanying another representative from the same DMO who had registered at the full conference rate.
Interested in bringing a spouse or adult family member to the conference? You will have the option to register a non-media/non-DMO guest who may be able to participate in the afternoon tours and evening activities. More information will be available at a later day.
