2024 Alberta Tourism Advocacy Summit

Hosted at the JW Marriott in Edmonton, the Alberta Tourism Advocacy Summit is the industry’s premier event to learn about current government priorities, to gain political and industry insights from experts and media observers, and for you to share your industry points-of-view with elected and nonelected representatives. 

Responding to attendee feedback from the last Alberta Tourism Advocacy Summit, Summit 2024 has been reformatted to include breakout sessions on 4 main thematic areas: Marketing, Place, Access and Leadership.  Each of the breakout sessions will feature speakers and panels on a wide range of topics including:

• Tourism zone development insights
• Air access capacity
• Destination reputation management
• Tomorrow’s traveler
• Predictive analytics
• Public lands access
• Citizen engagement
• Meeting ESG expectations
• ...And much, much, more.
