Granite Travel Trade Expos brought travel advisors to Vaughan last night (Nov. 5, 2024) for an evening of training and networking.

Granite holds travel trade events across Canada in the spring and fall each year. For fall 2024, the company held three Western Canada shows in Winnipeg, Victoria, and Surrey, and is currently hosting four Ontario shows in Ottawa, Vaughan, London, and Hamilton.  

TMR attended the Vaughan event, which was held at the Bellevue Manor. 

Each trade show offers an optional two-hour supplier presentation section, a trade show, and a complimentary dinner. The supplier presentations are approximately 15 minutes each and are designed to give advisors tips and tools for selling the products.

Travel advisors had the option to attend a two-hour supplier presentation or just the trade show and dinner portion. Over two dozen suppliers participated in the trade show. 

The night concluded with a Mexican-themed dinner buffet, sponsored by Sensira Resorts & Spa. 

The final show this year will be held in Hamilton (Burlington) on Nov. 7, 2024.
