Celebrating National Travel & Tourism Week here in Columbus! 🎉 Travel plays an essential role in powering economies, supporting communities and strengthening connections. This week, we are joining U.S. Travel Association and organizations across the country in recognizing the travel industry's impact. We hope you'll join us for TourismUS this Thursday, May 8 at the Columbus Museum of Art, where we'll celebrate the local impact of the travel economy and take a look back at all we accomplished together in 2024. We'll hear from industry, city and county leaders, network with fellow members of the hospitality community and celebrate the stars of our industry during the Best of US Awards.
