Atout France Canada’s annual travel show Destination France is set to take place in person next week with four in-person events for travel counsellors across the country. Vancouver. Registration is now open for the May 16-19 roadshow, which was held virtually last year due to the pandemic.

The dates are as follows:
• Montréal – May 16
• Quebec City – May 17
• Toronto – May 18
• Vancouver – May 19

Over 30 French destinations and suppliers will be on hand to meet attendees – “each (with) a range of offerings and great ideas for clients planning a legendary trip: cruise, hiking, shopping sprees, sleeping in new spots, front-row seats to cheer on the athletes whether they are skiers or skippers,” says Mélanie Paul-Hus, Director of Atout France Canada,” who adds, “Our destinations did not hesitate for a second to pack their bags and come to (Canada).”

With a nod to famed French writer and world traveller Jules Verne (“Around the World in Eighty Days”), the theme of the event is “The Great Journey,” designed to celebrate the “return to mobility and the appetite that Canadian travellers have had the opportunity to develop during these months of scarce international travel.”

Sponsored by Air Canada, the events will also feature cocktails courtesy of the Wines of Bordeaux.
