Puerto Rico is confirmed as host of the 2018 edition of Caribbean Travel Marketplace.
It will take place at the Puerto Rico Convention Center from January 30 to February 1, 2018.
Next year’s event will feature two days of business meetings pairing hotels and destinations with online travel agents, tour operators and MICE planners via thousands of pre-booked appointments.
"We are honored to host the most important Caribbean tourism event of the year as we evolve our position as a regional leader in the meetings and conventions business," said Omar Marrero, executive director of the Puerto Rico Convention Center District Authority.
"CHTA’s strategy to bring more MICE planners to next year’s Marketplace is very well aligned with our objective to continue to grow this crucial category."
This year’s Caribbean Travel Marketplace held in the Bahamas attracted 114 buyer companies from 20 countries with more than 10,000 pre-scheduled appointments.
"We look forward to returning to Puerto Rico and partnering with both the public and private sectors in such an incredibly welcoming destination," said CHTA’s President Karolin Troubetzkoy and CEO Frank Comito in a joint statement.
