The events in both Boston and New York City will follow similar formats. It will kick off with a roundtable networking session where industry partners will interact with key travel trade and travel media (50-60 people) from each of those cities in a workshop format. This afternoon roundtable networking will be roughly from 4-5:30pm.
From the roundtable networking, the attendees will then transition to a cocktail reception where they will be joined by 40 additional attendees (100 attendees total) for remarks and a quick presentation from the City of Belfast and Tourism Ireland.
The cocktail reception will then transition to the evening Belfast Music Showcase, which will be a 45-minute show programme from 7-7:45pm.
After the music showcase, there will be a post-showcase reception.
