ETI, the Expo de Turismo Internacional, which is the first international tourism expo in the Caribbean, is to take place at the Puerto Rico Convention Center, from 13 to 16 May, 2015. It will showcase the beauty, sports, nature, adventure, and gastronomy experiences available throughout the Caribbean and beyond.
"In planning for this event and with input from local and regional organizations such as the Caribbean Tourism Organization, the Puerto Rico Hotel & Tourism Association and most importantly ASTA and APAV, we are confident that this event has the potential to be a mainstay on the international calendar of tourism events," said Ingrid I Rivera Rocafort, Executive Director of the Puerto Rico Tourism company, organiser of ETI.
ETI - Puerto Rico will be held at the Puerto Rico Convention Center, the largest and most technologically advanced business conference venue in the Caribbean.
A hub for the Caribbean
As the US travel market's top-selling destination, "the Caribbean has long required an annual event tailored specifically to travel agents", said Rivera. "The fact that Puerto Rico acts as a hub for the Caribbean with air and sea access to most islands, makes it an ideal location for this inaugural tourism expo."
The four-day event will include group meetings, social and cultural events, field trips, workshops, destination trainings, keynote addresses and more, while the Exhibit Hall will be open two days to the travel trade and one day to consumers. ETI - Puerto Rico will feature pavilions from the Caribbean and beyond, providing tourism boards, hotels, suppliers, tour operators, airlines and others with direct access to 1000+ travel agents from the US, Central and South America, and Europe, and exposing them to new destinations and attractions.
