The LA Times Travel Show is a must-attend if you’re planning a trip in 2012. Even if you’re not, the wanderlust bug will certainly bite you after a day at the 2012 Travel Show exploring the world’s greatest adventures.
Touted as one of BizBash’s “Top 10 Southern California Trade Shows and Conventions”, the Los Angeles Times Travel Show returns to the L.A. Convention Center January 28-29, 2012.
In its 14th year, the 2012 Travel Show features all-new themed areas focused on family and active vacations, cruises, and luxury and leisure travel. A culinary stage will serve up regional and exotic flavors with cooking and cocktail demonstrations, while experiential activities and cultural performances will complete the international atmosphere. For example, creators of the infamous McNuggetini, Alie and Georgia, will be showing you how to make one of their wacky cocktails.
