CLIA has announced its 2025 RiverView conference will be held in Budapest, from March 8-10.
The event, the 13th to be held, will include conference sessions, multiple ship visits, a networking trade fair, breakout training sessions and overnight onboard stays.
A total of six river cruise operators will have ships moored in Budapest and available for agents to visit across two days. They are:
Riviera Travel – MS William Wordsworth
VIVA Cruises – VIVA TWO
Scenic – Scenic Opal
AmaWaterways – AmaSonata
TUI River Cruises – TUI Skyla
Riverside Luxury Cruises – Riverside Mozart
All other CLIA river cruise operators will attend, plus associated suppliers who will be on hand to meet at the trade fair.
A ‘New-to-Selling River Cruise Masterclass’ will take place just before the main programme, on the morning of March 8 which attending agents can pre-register for.
It will be held at the Marriott Hotel, Budapest, along with the trade fair and business sessions.
A number of optional short Fam sailings to Vienna will be available at the close of the conference, with details to be announced shortly.
Andy Harmer, CLIA MD, UK & Ireland, said: “RiverView is the must-attend date in the river cruise calendar and we’re looking forward to hosting delegates in eye-catching Budapest.”
“We’ve kept activities on the schedule which resonate well with the trade, while the short fam sailings we’ve added will offer further first-hand experience and insight.”
Registration will open on September 11.
