Discover Puerto Rico announced that San Juan will serve as the host for the World Travel & Tourism Council 2020 Global Summit, continuing to prove that the island is more than ready to welcome visitors.
“We’re honored to have been chosen as host destination for the upcoming World Travel and Tourism Council 2020 Global Summit. Puerto Rico is a place where rich culture and natural wonders lay the foundation for an immense bounty of one-of-a-kind experiences,” said Brad Dean, CEO of Discover Puerto Rico, in press materials. “We’re thriving as a destination of global importance and hosting this Summit will elevate even further our tourism offering, positively impacting the local economy. We look forward to welcoming the global tourism industry next year to discover all that Puerto Rico offers.”
