South Cariboo Tourism Forum 2024

Joint Release from the Cariboo Regional District, District of 100 Mile House:

The District of 100 Mile House in partnership with the Cariboo Regional District and the South Cariboo Visitor Centre are pleased to announce that registration for the 2024 South Cariboo Tourism Forum is now open. Speakers are confirmed and the day’s itinerary is set.

The Community Tourism Plan was completed earlier this year to provide a strategic path forward to guide future investment in tourism initiatives and to support the long-term growth of tourism in the South Cariboo.  One of the recommendations in the plan was to host a Tourism Forum to give tourism businesses an opportunity to come together to network and generally provide support for the local tourism sector. 

The South Cariboo Tourism Forum will take place Nov. 5th, 2024 at the Community Hall located at 265 Birch Ave in 100 Mile House.  It will be a full day conference style event.  Breakfast and lunch are provided and there is no registration fee. All tourism operators should plan to attend, including resorts, hotels/motels, campgrounds, restaurants, tour operators, guides, and any clubs and businesses that cater to tourists.  Options include attending for the whole day or just part of the day.

The Tourism Forum will provide an opportunity for new and established tourism businesses to meet and network, and also to hear from industry representatives about how they can help tourism businesses succeed. The morning session will include an overview of the Community Tourism Plan, then a session on Who’s Who in Tourism.  Hear from nearly a dozen organizations who support tourism and what they have to offer businesses.  After lunch, there will be focused presentations and discussions on topics that will be of interest to tourism businesses, followed by a facilitated discussion about how to work together to advance the local tourism industry.  

Please join us for a full day devoted to tourism! To register, please visit: https://www.discoversouthcariboo.ca/tourism-forum
