Australian Regional Tourism Convention

Welcome to the online home of the Australian Regional Tourism Convention (ARTC). The Convention, held annually at selected regional areas throughout Australia, was developed as a forum for Regional Tourism Organisations, State Tourism Organisations, Local Government Tourism Offices, and regional tourism enterprises to exchange ideas about ways to promote regional tourism success.

Working with the Australian Regional Tourism Research Centre and the Australian Regional Tourism Network the convention brings together Australia's key players in regional tourism.

This year the Convention heads to the Barossa region in South Australia. A three day program will look at Taking Tourism Into the Future, from 9 - 12 September 2008
