As a member, you’ll be invited to all our regular forums, where we give an update on the progress of our campaigns, share what’s next and how you can get involved. These are always a good chance to network too, not only with our team but with fellow members who make up the local tourism industry.
Our Annual Conference is an opportunity to hear the successes of the previous year and what to look forward to in the year ahead. This event always includes relevant industry guest speakers and lots of opportunities for networking.
These online workshops will provide an overview of current trends and research findings relating to visitors to the West of England.

"I just wanted to drop a quick email to say congratulations to you and the team for putting together such a fantastic conference. I was delighted to see such a great turnout and the quality of the speakers was inspiring. I was captivated throughout. I walked away from the conference feeling very excited about the future of our region, so many projects for us to be proud of and will for sure help us market our fabulous region. I am so very grateful to you and all of the team at Visit West for all that you do."- Caroline Browning - The Roseate Villa Bath
