Ten Things to do at the first ever “Travel Street: Philippine Travel Mart’s 1st Green and Gold Tourism Fair at BGC
Are
you ready for the first and biggest travel fair to be held outdoors this first
week of May? Well, we are too! And summer just got more exciting as Philippine Travel Mart comes to
Bonifacio High Street for Travel Street, the first Green & Gold Tourism
fair! Bonifacio
Global City, together with the Philippine Tour Operators Association (PHILTOA)
and the Department of Tourism, invites everyone to take part in a unique travel
fair that aims to promote sustainable tourism in “Travel Street:
Philippine Travel Mart’s 1st Green and Gold Tourism Fair.”
A first-of-its-kind outdoor travel fair, ‘Travel Street’ will
be held at the Globe Iconic Bonifacio High Street Amphitheater, on May 4-6 from
10am to 8pm. The event is sponsored by leading local airline Cebu Pacific.
Green and Gold Tourism simply means tourism that focuses on
ecological and cultural conservation, respectively and during the official launch held last April 25, 2018 at
Manam BGC, PHILTOA President Cesar Cruz shares that,
“Through this 1st Green and Gold Tourism Fair, we put the
focus on sustainable tourism and bring to the public carefully curated
eco-cultural tourism products. We hope that with this, we are able to
spark renewed interest in other tourism destinations that the Philippines has
to offer and of course, raise our tourism revenue.”
“BGC is thrilled to bring
‘Travel Street’ to the public, and we believe we have the perfect venue to
promote sustainable and responsible tourism, especially to the millennial
market. We thank PHILTOA and DOT for this partnership in presenting pristine
Philippine destinations,” says Associate City Marketing Manager of
BGC, Joanne Magno.
