Trinidad and Tobago celebrates Caribbean Tourism Month November is officially Caribbean Tourism Month!
Beginning today, Trinidad and Tobago will join the Caribbean Tourism Organization (CTO) in the celebrations under the recurring theme, “One Sea, One Voice, One Caribbean.” An initiative of the CTO, Caribbean Tourism Month aims to achieve the following: • To raise awareness among Caribbean people of the importance of tourism in the Caribbean; • To enhance the profile of the Caribbean tourism sector in the marketplace; • To reflect on the invaluable impact of tourism on the economic, social and cultural wellbeing in the Caribbean; • To attract positive media coverage of the Caribbean and the local tourism product and; • To celebrate the diversity of what the Caribbean offers. Trinidad and Tobago will participate in several digital promotions spearheaded by the CTO and designed to increase engagement with our destination’s social media accounts on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. Some of the activities planned by CTO include: • A 30-day social media photo/video challenge that focuses on Caribbean fashion, heritage and nature. • Instagram stories that feature what member countries are doing to embrace Caribbean Tourism Month. • Periscope & Facebook Live Marathon/Tweet Chat. On 17 November the CTO will host a virtual Periscope Caribbean Fashion Show Marathon and Tweet-Chat Session in partnership with Karibbean Kollective to promote Caribbean designers.
