About the expos

The series of regional travel trade events are designed to connect industry suppliers and top-producing travel agents, facilitating valuable and essential in-person interactive consultations and presentations. Each expo will continue to be focused on training and networking, with face-to-face interaction with agents and products.

In each city, a presentation series featuring 15-minute segments by suppliers will be followed by a trade show, dinner, and
prize giveaways.

Returning title sponsors are Bahia Principe Hotels and Resorts and St. Kitts Tourism. Sensira Resorts & Spa is the food sponsor and Catalonia Hotels and Resorts is once again providing $20 pre-paid Mastercards to the first 50 agents who arrive at each event.

50 confirmed suppliers

There are more than 50 suppliers confirmed to attend the various expos. Attendees are encouraged to refer to www.granitetravelexpos.com for all the participating vendors.

Multi-show vendor discounts up to 15 per cent off are available to those wishing to participate in the expos. Contact Bradley Dean directly via brad@graniteproductions.ca for details.

The Granite Travel Trade Expos are set to expand in 2025, with 21 locations including for the first time, Atlantic Canada.
