We have some big, BIG news.

For the past 14 years, we've brought the world's leading innovators in the food, tourism and hospitality space together to share ideas, make connections and create change at the Terroir Symposium.  

We’re excited to share that with the help of our partners, speakers and program committee, the 2020 Terroir Symposium is officially going virtual on September 13th - 15th, 2020.

We know this means the Symposium will be a little different and some of the things you loved about it may not be able to happen in the same way - but we think that’s okay. We're really excited about the possibilities of a virtual Terroir, not just this year but in years to come. We believe we’ll be able to reach more people with our call for collaboration and provide access to the resources we provide for more of those who didn’t have it before. We think this is an opportunity for our network to grow. It’s an opportunity to reach more people on the front lines of our industry and support innovation.

Ours is an organization built by the support of the hospitality and travel industries - the two industries hit hardest during this time of crisis. Thank you for continuing to support our work. The work of the Culinary Tourism Alliance would not be possible without you. To help us continue this work, we’ve created a “Taste of Terroir Box”. 

Each box purchase includes a boat load of delicious, innovative products from our partners, as well as a second ticket to this years’ event for someone in need - be it junior staff, new farmers, students or the unemployed. We’ll be assigning all additional tickets on a first come, first basis in early September through a portal on our website. Proceeds from the sale of these boxes will go directly to support the continued operation of the Culinary Tourism Alliance.

Please follow @TerroirSymposium for updates and news about the dynamic programming we’re putting together to celebrate our 2020 theme: COLLABORATION. We think exploring the power of partnerships is more important than ever. If you haven’t subscribed to our newsletter, we encourage you to do so. Subscribers will be the first to hear about new speakers, workshops and perks.

We look forward to seeing you online this September!
