Irvine Chamber - Travel Writers to Meet in Irvine
|
IRVINE, Calif. – July 7, 2010–The Travel Media Showcase (TMS, www.travelmediashowcase.com), which brings together over 150 travel writers and journalists from around the world, will meet in Irvine, CA from September 21 to 24. The Irvine Chamber Visitors Bureau (www.irvinecvb.org) is organizing the local program that includes an exclusive fashion show and Taste of O.C. dining event. Leading print, online and broadcast travel media are scheduled to attend the 2010 show, which is in its eleventh year and produced by J. Vero & Associates of Freehold, New Jersey. TMS provides journalists and tourism executives the opportunity to meet in one-on-one meetings and develop relationships to support information exchange for business and leisure travelers. Journalists are able to develop new story ideas and collect background material, while tourism professionals have a chance to expose their respective agencies to writers that may report on their destinations, venues and attractions in travel features and guides.
“We are delighted to host the 2010 Travel Media Showcase in Irvine. This is a unique way for journalists and travel industry professionals to come together and experience the Irvine lifestyle,” said Tallia Hart, President & CEO of the Irvine Chamber of Commerce. “The Irvine Chamber Visitors Bureau formed a committee of local business leaders and we are working closely with the City of Irvine to create a memorable experience for the TMS attendees. There are many opportunities for local businesses to be involved. Previous TMS shows have resulted in extensive coverage for the regions in which they were held.”
The Travel Media Showcase will be held from September 21 to 24 at the Hyatt Regency in Irvine. For additional information, contact: Taite Bergin at icvb@irvinechamber.com or (949) 357-9999.
