Engaging New England Travelers at the Dream Destinations Travel Show

Your Tourism Champions booth was on display at the Dream Destinations Travel Show at the MGM Springfield in Springfield, MA, on April 12th. We had steady traffic through the booth, with many New Englanders eager to explore New York State.

Many families and retirees came through the booth during the one-day show. We saw an emphasis on exploring New York State via rail, whether by Amtrak or on one of the many scenic railroads in the state. There was also a desire to take road trips across the state, visiting outdoor attractions and museums.

The booth was on a corner near the entrance of the show. Attendees enjoyed taking photos at our photo kiosk and appreciated the variety of information available in our booth.

If you participate in the Tourism Champions program and have an updated travel guide, please inform Nate Gresock at nate@nystia.org.
