YALETOWN ROCKS TOURISM SHOWCASE

The Yaletown BIA joined Les Clefs d'Or & Tourism Vancouver for another successful Tourism Showcase! The Tourism Showcase was on April 11 this year, and featured over 100 companies that offer products and services to tourists. Yaletown was at the event to show off all your businesses to the City's top hotel concierge and tourism representatives.

Topping the event again this year, Yaletown was the only exhibitor to bring a male model bearing a map of your neighbourhood. Everyone marked Mr. Yaletown with their favorite shops, restaurants, and venues!

Also, the concierge of Vancouver received Yaletown reference binders. These quick references will make it easy for tourists to find exactly what they're looking for in Yaletown. Thank you to all of our businesses that gave items for these binders!

WELCOME AERA DELEGATES

The American Educational Research Association is in town until tomorrow. This is the largest conference of the year, and has brought thousands of delegates into Vancouver. Yaletown has developed targeted marketing to bring these guests into your neighbourhood! Please welcome these researchers into your neighbourhood, as we wish to leave an amazing lasting impression.

If you own a Yaletown business and notice an increase in sales, please let us know. We wish to continue refining our outreach to continue bringing in tourists.
