FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Following the success of its 2024 event, leading event organiser Journeys Global Group announced its Journeys North America, an annual boutique luxury travel event, will return to Houston for its third edition April 28 – May 1, 2025.
Regarded as the premiere luxury travel event, Journeys North America will bring together an exclusive gathering of senior representatives from the finest global travel products and high-end travel advisors from across the United States. Together, the groups will engage in one-on-one meetings while being hosted in iconic locations around Houston.
Some of the exhibitors confirmed for 2025 include Italian tour operators Elite Travel Italy and Target Travel, Middle Eastern DMC Magic Travels and Indian specialist Tattva Journeys.
“We are truly honoured to be welcomed back to an unspoiled city like Houston, with a food scene, cultural richness and sense of hospitality second to none. We could keep coming back over and over and there would always be something new to put out to our clients” said Journeys’ founder and industry veteran Micaela Giacobbe.
Journeys North America is organised in the revolutionary FAM-MEET® way of doing
business: an experience-based format that allows participating delegates to form deep and meaningful relationships while discovering the destination.
Earlier this year, Journeys Global Group partnered with Houston First, The Post Oak
Hotel and Landry’s Inc. to curate one-to-one business meetings at notable venues such as the Museum of Fine Arts and Space Center Houston, in addition to creating unique experiences such as lunch with retired NASA astronaut Michael Foreman, a lavish cocktail reception at The Post Oak’s Penthouse Suite, and a chance to experience a baseball game with two-time World Series Champions Houston Astros.
While details for next year’s agenda have yet to be revealed, Journeys North America’s headline sponsor Houston First will be preparing to unlock other exclusive venues and local experiences for all attendees, further raising the bar and positioning Houston as a premium destination for luxury travellers in the United States.
“As the fourth largest city in the United States, Houston is a destination rich in culture and one that will reinvigorate a visitor’s joy for exploration, luxury, and new experiences,” said Jorge Franz. “We thank Journeys Global Group for their selection of Houston and know their attendees will enjoy the city’s iconic attractions and new discoveries.”
Travel buyers will be carefully chosen from Journeys’ independent global network and include the most prominent American travel agents, tour operators and concierge companies with a proven track record of sales in Houston, as well as a desire to expand their supplier portfolio worldwide. The cumulative buying power of the 35 travel agents who attended Journeys North America 2024 edition came to over 275 million dollars.
Applications to attend the 2024 event are now open for both travel suppliers and buyers, and those interested in attending can submit their interest here or by contacting events director Alex Roca at alex@journeys.global.
