The Riviera Nayarit continues to reconfirm its status as the ideal destination for event tourism thanks to the sheer number of great activities that take place here year round.
This June, Mexico’s Pacific Treasure is hosting musical, sports, and cultural events as part of their tourism offer.
“In the Riviera Nayarit we continue to focus on events as part of our promotional strategy, because not only do they allow us to contribute to the destination’s economic spillover, but it also positions us as leaders in meetings tourism, incentivizes the arrival of visitors to our hotels, and, above all, it offers a wonderful gamut of activities for vacationers to the region,” said Marc Murphy, managing director of the Bahía de Banderas Hotel And Motel Association (AHMBB) and the Riviera Nayarit Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB).
