Monday, May 27, 2024 Join us in Bruges, Oct 15-18, for the GDS-Forum & CityDNA Autumn Conference, shaping the future of sustainable urban tourism. Picture an era where city tourism not only thrives but also sets new benchmarks for sustainability and creativity. This coming October, the time-honored city of Bruges will play host to a pioneering gathering aimed at realizing this ambitious goal.
The GDS-Forum together with the CityDNA Autumn Conference will take place from the 15th to the 18th of October 2024, inviting destination marketing experts from across the globe. These simultaneous events provide a distinctive stage for sector leaders to discover and share groundbreaking approaches, work together on eco-friendly projects, and revolutionize the travel industry. Adopting the audacious theme “Let Pigs Fly,” these events challenge traditional views of city tourism and the visitor economy by presenting tales of overcoming the odds and effecting significant change.
This is a rendezvous for the fearless, those ready to defy the norm, and pioneer new directions in destination innovation and transformation. “As stewards of sustainability and innovation, Bruges extends a warm welcome to host the CityDNA Autumn Conference and GDS-Forum”, says Dieter Dewulf, Director and Tourism Manager of Visit Bruges. GDS-Forum: Pioneering Sustainable Change The GDS-Forum, celebrated for its innovative “un-conference” approach, focuses on nurturing participants into leaders of regenera.
