The 38th edition of the Caribbean Travel Marketplace will be held at the Baha Mar Convention and Performing Arts Center in the Bahamas from January 21-23 next year.
Frank Comito, CEO and General Director of the Caribbean Hotel and Tourism Association (CHTA), said they are interested in promoting the tourism business in The Bahamas and its exceptional offerings as a destination.
"We look forward to sharing with the world the uniqueness of our people, our history, culture, food and music, which will be integrated into the Caribbean Travel Marketplace 2020 experience," announced Dionisio D'Aguilar, Bahamian Minister of Tourism and Aviation, adding that they hope to showcase the advances in those islands by expanding and improving the tourism product as well as the guest experience.
In addition, Graeme Davis, Bah Mar President, noted that the Caribbean Hotel and Tourism Association has been fundamental in the growth of the Caribbean leisure industry, and they hope to show the contemporary glamour and charm of the Bahamas to CHTA members and companies that influence global travel to the Caribbean region.
