The conference will start with a networking lunch between 12:00-13:00, followed by a great line up of speakers providing their insights and expertise, plus opportunities to network with colleagues and make new contacts.

This year's programme will include:

• the latest updates on Edinburgh's visitor economy activity
• an overview of developments and plans at a national level
• an overview of some of the latest tourism trends and insights

The much loved "spotlight sessions" will be back with updates from a range of exciting new developments and projects across the city.

Thanks to sponsorship from Edinburgh University, there will be a post-conference networking reception.

A full conference programme will be confirmed soon.
