HEADLINE SPEAKERS & STAGESKeynote Speakers Included:

In 2020, the inaugural Atlanta Travel & Adventure Show provided new, updated content and speakers to engage attendees. The results? Almost all sessions on all stages on both Saturday and Sunday were standing room only.

The Travel Theater, where attendees go for inspiration and advice from travel celebrities, packing tens-of-thousands of attendees. Samantha Brown, Josh Gates, Peter Greenberg, and Patricia Schultz all spoke to travelers on the main stage throughout the weekend.

At the Destination Theater, dozens of sessions spanning both show days provided educational workshops based on specific destinations. From Alaska and Hawaii to MSC Cruises and Italy, attendees had the opportunity to learn about various destinations from around the world in 30 minute sessions.

On the Savvy Traveler Theater, attendees enjoyed over 15 sessions over both days dedicated to providing actionable advice on how to travel safer, better, and more efficient. From packing tips and solo travel advice, to budget tips and how to be a travel influencer, Travel & Adventure Show consumers packed the theater each day.

For those attendees searching for cultural experiences, the Global Beats Stage provided just that. With over 20 cultural performances, attendees got to feel the beat and rhythm of faraway cultures from around the globe.
