Barrhead Travel Group to head to Croatia for annual conference

The Barrhead Travel Group has revealed its annual conference will take place in Dubrovnik, Croatia (September 28-October 1).

Expected to be the agency’s biggest ever conference, it will be held at the five-star Dubrovnik Palace Hotel.

Delegates will include Barrhead Travel senior management, retail managers, head office managers, Brilliant Travel members and supplier partners.

Last year, the group’s annual conference was held in Ibiza, with a three-day programme of panel debates, keynote speakers and evening events across the island.

This year is also the group’s 50th year in business which will form a central part of the conference’s themes and activities.

Nicki Tempest-Mitchell, managing director at Barrhead Travel Group, said: “It’s a big year for the Barrhead Travel Group as we celebrate five decades in business.

“Our conference will form part of a programme of year-long celebrations with our colleagues and our partners.

“This year, we’re incredibly excited to be heading to Croatia – a real rising star for European cruises and holidays.

“The investment in Croatia over the last decade has accelerated its tourism infrastructure, so we’re really looking forward to showcasing the best that Dubrovnik has to offer.

“Our conference is all about bringing people together – so we’re preparing a dynamic programme of networking, business sessions and, of course, our famous evening party nights.”

Barrhead Travel’s conference is expected to host more than 270 delegates this year.
