While there have been International Wine Tourism Conferences, this November will be the first global wine tourism conference to be held on the North American continent.  Scheduled for November 16-17, 2011 it  will appeal to many people in the tourism industry both international and national.

The 2011 conference website notes it will “address current industry trends and the issues that impact wine tourism throughout the globe.” Several groups and organizations have joined together to offer this conference. Sponsors include Zephyr Adventures and MartinCalder Productions.
