Visit Tacoma-Pierce County Annual Meeting

Tourism is Rad

Tourism is about to hit 88 miles per hour. This year’s annual meeting is totally rad, packed with storytelling, fresh tourism data, and an industry update that proves the future is bright (and maybe even a little heavy). Expect insights that feel out of this world, the kind you’ll want to phone home about.

Of course, it’s not all business. There’ll be food, drinks, and networking that satisfies the need for speed. Take the afternoon away from your desk, because life moves pretty fast, and this is the moment to celebrate our industry, recharge with friends, and remember: Tourism is the Force that binds us.

We’ll look at the past year, and take a trip to the future. With a little soccer tournament coming to the region next year, things are in flux, but we have the capacity to do a little forecasting.

Bottom line: This will be the least risky business meeting you’ve ever attended, and without you, it would be inconceivable.
