The Tourism Society is the professional membership body for people working in all sectors of the tourism industry and the Symposium is an annual conference that attracts hundreds of people as well as guest speakers from tourism markets for the event.
Coun Gillian Campbell, deputy leader of Blackpool Council said: “The Tourism Society’s Symposium will provide an excellent opportunity for us to not only showcase the superb facilities on offer at the new Winter Gardens Conference Centre but also the new accommodation on offer and direct transport links.”
