World Sports Tourism Congress

The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) and the Catalan Tourist Board (Agència Catalana de Turisme) are organizing the World Sports Tourism Congress which will take place from 25-26 November 2021, in Lloret de Mar, Catalonia, Spain.

Catalonia has been chosen to host this congress due to the region’s extensive sports tradition and its first-class infrastructures. The congress is part of the Year of Sports Tourism in Catalonia, whose main events had to be postponed until 2021 because of Covid. Additionally, the promotion and emphasis of the territory on sports tourism has led Catalonia to become one of the world’s leading sports destinations.

Objectives:

  • Strengthen the relationship between sports tourism, sustainable development and the 2030 Agenda.
  • Promote diversification, differentiation and deseasonalization.
  • Enhance opportunities through innovation.
  • Exchange experiences and report on current and future trends in the sector.
  • Stimulate public-private collaboration through successful strategies.

People can attend online (50€) or in person (150€).
