Can I sponsor Travelcon or donate something for your attendees?

Will there be networking opportunities with brands and tourism boards?
Yes! We will have an entire afternoon where attendees can sit down and talk to folks in one on one meetings in our expo center.
I'm new to blogging. Is this event for me?
Yes! We have beginner tracks designed to help those getting started avoid the rookie mistakes that keep people from reaching their potential. At this conference, you'll be able to learn from experts who have been doing this for years and will teach you the right way to do this. Plus, you'll meet people in your industry who can help you get your feet off the ground and grow your business right away. This is the best place to learn where to start.
I've been blogging for years, is this for me?
Heck yes! We've created an advance track for people who have been a creator for awhile so they can take the next step and learn the advance skills needed to 10x their website. You'll get high level talks on monetization, SEO, product creation, conversion, writing, and newsletters that will help you stay at the forefront of the industry and keep your website growing.
Can I be a volunteer?
We'll be announcing a call for volunteers in early 2019.
Are you taking applications for speakers?
We are not. Please do not email us.
Will the conference be live streamed?
No but we have virtual ticket where you can view all the talks online once the event is over!
Why is this conference priced higher than other similar travel events?
At TravelCon, we believe no one should work for free...and we practice what we preach. We pay all our speakers. As such, ticket prices reflect that higher overhead cost. So, while the ticket price is higher, you know your favorite bloggers, writers, vloggers, and influencers have been compensated for their time! After all, "exposure" doesn't pay rent!
How long will the sessions be?
The talks, panels, workshops are all one hour long.
Will there be an expo center?
Yes, we will have an expo center that will feature our sponsoring tourism boards, PR firms, travel brands, and tech companies.
