Coach tourism industry members are heading to Norwich on 17-19 May for a weekend of product development and new business opportunities.
The Coach Tourism Association’s Spring Networking will host fam trips, a Supplier Showcase, and discussions aimed at growing new business.
The event also comprises the organisation’s Annual General Meeting. All CTA members are welcome, and coach tour operators, wholesalers, and suppliers who are not current members are encouraged to join and participate.
CTA Spring Networking will be hosted at Kew Green Hotels’ Holiday Inn Norwich North, and will start at 9 am on Sunday morning, 18 May, for a cruise of the Norfolk Broads, courtesy of Broads Tours. In the afternoon, delegates will head to Holkham for lunch and a guided tour of the home and grounds. With travel provided by Eastons Holidays, the fam trips give operators and wholesalers an in-person experience of new trips and tours for customers in Norfolk.
The evening will offer opportunities for business discussion and networking, with entertainment provided by CN Live Productions’ West End Crooners.
On Monday, May 19, proceedings begin with the CTA’s AGM, followed by a presentation offering a guide to coach tourism and its opportunities in Norfolk. The Supplier Showcase concludes the event, with suppliers to the coach tourism sector, ranging from hotels to attractions, talking one-to-one with coach tour operators and wholesalers to plan new business.
“The lineup of Norfolk fam trips will give coach operators an excellent opportunity to discover new attractions for their portfolio, combined with the hotels, attractions, and service providers presenting at the Supplier Showcase,” says CTA Chair Robert Shaw.
