The 4th IAGTO North America Golf Tourism Convention will take place at the IP Casino Resort & Spa in Biloxi, Mississippi from the 6-9 June 2012. More than 100 golf tour operators selling North America will attend the Convention with some 25% from the USA & Canada and the remainder from more than 20 different countries all with North American golf programmes. So if developing your domestic and international visitor green fee revenue is important to your business, then this event is not to be missed.

The Convention is open only to golf resorts, golf clubs, hotels, ground handlers and other golf tourism suppliers in the USA, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean. Eight hours of 10-minute appointment sessions preceded by a two hour speed-dating session where the operators will be seated will allow you to meet every single operator on a 1-to-1 basis. The business sessions will be preceded by an IAGTO Briefing to ensure you get the most out of your meetings and are updated on the current state of the market. The networking-social functions have been expanded this year to include a Welcome Reception, Dine-Around, BBQ Blues Night and Golf Tournament at two amazing golf courses with everything just minutes from the hotel.

"I wanted to commend you for such an outstanding convention which has brought us many new customers, friends, and more importantly new business. I can’t tell you how many golf shows I have attended in my life, which were pretty much useless. But your event was amazing, and by listening to your speech, you understand how important it is that we meet quality golf tour operators and they meet us. You have us convinced to be members of your elite organisation!!"
