Céad Míle Fáilte – that means one hundred thousand welcomes to TBEX Europe in Dublin, Ireland!
Fáilte Ireland, the National Tourism Development Authority in Ireland and their partners have created three pre-TBEX and two post-TBEX blog trips that are now open for application. This is a wonderful way to add on a few days to your Ireland experience, finding great experiences and adventures to share with your readers.
While we work with our hosts in Dublin, putting the finishing touches on all the pre- and post-TBEX activities for which you’ll soon be able to sign up, we wanted to give you an idea of what the schedule looks like. Here’s some general information about what’s going on when, so you can better plan your travels.
Did you see our announcement last week, when we introduced our first group of TBEX Dublin speakers? Today, we have another great group to announce, and we couldn’t be more excited! Don’t forget to share your favorites on Twitter, Facebook, and your other favorite social networks.
Unfortunately, at this year’s TBEX conference in Toronto, we were forced to cancel one of our speaker’s talks at the last minute due to the speaker’s continued violations of our speaker and attendee agreements. This caused a bit of controversy at the time, so I want to explain why we made the decision we did, and to help everyone understand the broader ethical responsibility that event organizers have to their attendees, sponsors, and speakers.
Today is an exciting day: we’re announcing our first group of speakers for TBEX Dublin! Obviously, we still have a ton of proposals to review, but we want to give a hearty welcome to the following speakers who will be coming to the Dublin stage in October.
TBEX couldn’t have picked a better time to come to Dublin.
Revitalising after a spell of recession, the Irish capital has hit a purple patch. There’s excitement in the air, as if a whole new brand of electricity has been tapped and zapped around the city streets, energising everything and everybody. It’s Dublin 2.0, and its time is now.
Have you been mulling over your ideas for a session at TBEX Dublin this fall? Well, here’s a little bit of good news – you’ve got a few more days to polish it up and send it to us. That’s right, we’re extending the deadline for TBEX Dublin speaker proposals.
Share with your friends and readers that you’re going to TBEX Dublin with our TBEX Dublin badges.
The Expedia® Viewfinder Film Contest has a few days left! Open to travel bloggers, in partnership with the National Film Festival for Talented Youth (NFFTY), one travel blogger will win the chance to bring their blog post to life through film and star in their own travel short video. The winner will travel to one of five pre-selected destinations – each destination an icon of the silver screen – including Australia, Paris, Morocco, London, and Seattle. The Expedia Viewfinder Film Contest began June 5 and the entry period will close on June 30, 2013.
The crew from the This Week in Travel podcast has recorded live shows at past TBEX conferences, and they took the stage again in Toronto during the closing general session. This time, hosts Gary Arndt, Chris Christensen, and Jen Leo had the never-understated Spud Hilton as their guest, and they also got help from TBEX speaker Leif Pettersen, who made sure the podcasters all had something cold to drink before they dug into the topics at hand.
