Tiqets is hosting a free Summer Comeback virtual conference on 2 June with speakers from Lonely Planet, BarcelonaTurisme and Travel & Leisure magazine. The conference will help museums, attractions, and travel businesses recover fast and strong with local visitors.
The two-hour conference will bring together travel businesses at a pivotal time to share strategies to fast-track their recovery. The event will be packed with actionable insights, which attendees can use to recover this high season.
Maarten Raaijmakers, Tiqets’ Chief Supply Officer said, “Consumers have missed the tourism industry as much as we’ve missed them. A recent Tiqets survey found that 92% of people plan to visit museums and attractions within the first six months of their reopening. That’s a lot of pent-up demand that the industry has to be ready to capture. Tiqets’ Summer Comeback conference will help museums, attractions, and travel businesses get back on their feet swiftly with the right post-Covid, high-season strategies.”
The keynote address will be from Lonely Planet Experiences Vice President, Tom Hall on “A moment of opportunity”. Attendees will learn the trends identified by Lonely Planet that show how businesses use this summer as an opportunity to re-engage a massive audience.
There will be a panel discussion on “how to stand out to visitors this summer”. Attendees will discover strategies to make this summer a success from panellists including travel writer for Travel & Leisure Stacey Leasca, Lonely Planet Experience VP Tom Hall, and Barcelona Turisme Sales Manager Gianluca Cammagio in this discussion moderated by Tiqets’ Chief Supply Officer Maarten Raaijmakers.
The roundtable discussions (invite only) on “strategies for your market”. Attendees can join in the roundtable discussion for museums, attractions, and travel businesses in their market to discuss actions to take now to set up for the best summer possible. Note: these round table conversations are open exclusively to venues and distributors partnering with Tiqets.
Tom Hall, Lonely Planet Experiences VP said, “This summer provides a fantastic opportunity for recovery to really take off. Visitors will be keen to get to know iconic museums and attractions that they’ve missed over the winter months. For attractions, there are great opportunities to build new audiences experiencing a new side of holidaying closer to home. It adds up to an exciting time and a change to look forward.”
70% of people plan to start visiting museums and attractions in their first month of reopening. This conference is designed to prepare you to take full advantage of consumers’ excitement to return to culture.
