Visit USA Australia was back at its best, hosting its VIP Industry Welcome Event at IPW 2023 over the weekend. The event, held on Saturday 20 May at Howl at the Moon in San Antonio Texas, was attended by the Australian and New Zealand IPW delegation, as well as Visit USA Australia Members. The 170-strong crowd were entertained with duelling pianos, a song written just for the event and a band playing US classics. Oh what a night!

Special guest Jon Handlery was honoured for his service to the industry, his unwavering support and his commitment to shorts and long socks for 41 years!

Big thanks to event sponsors Los Angeles Tourism and LAX, Delta Airlines and Gate 7, supported by TravMedia and Travlel Texas.

TRAVEL WITHOUT THE CROWDS?

COLORADO is a playground for adventure and road trips that take in the fresh mountain air and steer clear of crowded tourist spots. Colorado has four national parks, 26 scenic byways, and the headwaters of four major rivers.

Whilst it’s 28 ski resorts are a mecca for visitors in the winter, they’re deliver just as many thrills and equally beautiful backdrops while they’re less busy in the summer and fall, and activities turn to hiking, mountain biking and leaf peeping.

Rocky Mountain National Park is popular thanks to its epic trails and wildlife, so instead visitors looking for a socially-distanced option can look to other national parks and state parks that generally attract less visitors and offer just as great sights and experiences, try Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, characterised by its steep canyon walls and dark skies.

SEATTLE is well-known for its buzzing live-music scene with musical legends Jimi Hendrix, Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Kurt Cobain all calling the city home. But, if your clients aren’t music fans, there’s something to love about Seattle for everyone, from its stunning natural scenery (the city is surrounded by national parks and incredible mountainous countryside – it isn’t nicknamed the Emerald City for nothing) to its established coffee scene (there’s practically a small-batch roaster on every corner, and the city is the birthplace of Starbucks).
