The New Jersey Tourism Industry Association is excited to bring together professionals from all facets of our industry including statewide trade associations, destination marketing organizations, convention and visitors’ bureaus, chambers of commerce, corporations, independent businesses, and non-profit organizations to promote New Jersey Tourism policies and priorities over brunch an energized agenda at this year’s Advocacy Day. Our annual event, held during National Travel & Tourism Week, elevates the value travel and tourism holds for the economy, businesses and the personal wellbeing of our industry professionals.

Our agenda includes Association and legislative updates, the latest tourism industry statistics, trends and impact, along with special recognition for Anthony Minick for his years of service to the tourism industry and a tribute to Joe Simonetta. A full agenda to follow. We look forward to seeing you there.
