SCHEDULE & CONTENT
What's on the TravelCon 2024 agenda?
The TC24 schedule is your roadmap to making the most out of the event, packed with opportunities to find your people, do business, and learn from your peers.
Sessions
All of our sessions will be aimed at helping you go pro or scale. You’ll learn from the success stories and case studies of your industry peers and leaders. Sessions will be provided in a variety of formats, some featuring multiple presenters giving shorter talks and others will be longer presentations by one speaker or duo.
Expo
Featuring Travel Boards, Travel Brands, CVBs, DMOs, creator service providers, and more — many with specially-curated offers, partnerships, and products to discuss with you. This will be the hub of the TravelCon experience, with live podcast & video spaces, a lounge, and more!
Pro Networking
Secure one-on-one meetings with the brands, sponsors, and travel boards you’ve been eyeing. Schedule your sit-downs in advance using our event software so that you’ll arrive at TravelCon with meetings already on the books.
Creator Conversations
Think of Creator Conversations as a hybrid between masterminds and educational sessions with a dash of networking sprinkled in. These creator-led small group discussions focus on topics related to content creation, audience growth, and monetization strategies.

- Partnering with Other Creators – host Angel Trinh, Bougie in a Backpack
- Effective Negotiations – host Maria Mallory, Maria the Wild
- Hiring a Virtual Employee or Team – host Clementine Koa, Travel with Clem

Meetups
Find your people in meetups tailored to your platform or niches. Our goal is to connect you with as many creators as possible, so these will be sprinkled throughout the event for maximum mingling. Participate in as many as you’d like.
FAM Tours
These pre and post-event adventures can help you uncover the beauty of Portland and its surroundings. Tours will be scheduled for the Tuesday before and the Saturday after TravelCon. Sign-ups are reserved for attendees only and have been provided via email.
Dinner Clubs
Celebrate Portland’s vibrant food scene by grabbing a seat at one of our Dinner Clubs, where 6-8 folks share a meal at some of Portland’s best spots. Dinner Clubs are optional on Thursday evening, but spots are limited. Each diner covers their own tab, and there will be a variety of cuisines to choose from. Signups available soon.
Late Night Niche Meetups
Okay, well, maybe not too late. Each evening, we’ll have a few low-key niche meetups at both of the host hotels. These are completely optional, so if you’re not a Night Owl, it’s okay. But if it helps, you can even wear your slippers…
