Visit Orlando, the official tourism board of Orlando, Florida, has partnered with several Orlando-based theme parks and tourism destinations to hold a-first-of-its-kind live virtual travel show.
The free event, titled ‘The Wonder Awaits You! An Orlando Virtual Travel Experience’, will take place at 6pm (EST) on March 25. Registered attendees will be able to access the event on-demand until March 28.
Aimed at US consumers planning ‘staycations’ in 2021, the show will feature a main stage offering keynote speeches, as well as an experience village, which will serve as a virtual trade show.
Attendees will be able to watch experiential presentations from the likes of DisneyWorld, Universal Orlando Resort, Legoland Florida and SeaWorld Orlando, and connect with more than 40 of Visit Orlando’s destination partners, all offering show deals.
Attendees will also have the opportunity to win one of several prizes, including flights to Orlando and holiday packages at DisneyWorld, Universal and SeaWorld.
“Knowing there is a lot of pent-up demand for travel this year, we wanted to create a one-stop experience for visitors to plan their ‘bucket list’ summer vacation and feel confident they’ll be visiting a destination that takes safety seriously,” said Casandra Matej, president and CEO for Visit Orlando.
“Our virtual travel experience has elements for both adults and families to enjoy, including sneak peeks into what’s new at the theme parks, fun games, themed photo ops, new safety measures, and of course, answers to their vacation planning questions.”
