1. International Hotel/Motel & Restaurant Show
Everything from aprons to luxe linens to professional ovens will be on display at this annual trade show, sponsored by the New York State Hospitality & Tourism Association, the Hotel Association of New York City, and the American Hotel & Lodging Association. The massive show fills the Javits Center with about 40,000 attendees each year; the 2006 show runs November 12 to 14.
2. NYU's Hospitality Investment Conference
For the 12th year in a row, Loews Corporation C.E.O. Jonathan Tisch will be the chairman of the Preston Robert Tisch Center for Hospitality, Tourism, and Sports Management's annual gathering, which drew more than 1,500 attendees in 2005. Speeches, workshops, and conferences will fill this three-day event, from June 4 to 6 at the Marriott Marquis.
3. NYC & Company Annual Meeting
The New York tourism industry raked in $24 billion last year, and on January 17, 600 of the city's tourism cheerleaders gathered at the Marriott Marquis to talk about how to grow that amount. The usual speaker suspects—Jonathan Tisch, Cristyne Nicholas, Mayor Michael Bloomberg, and Dan Doctoroff—spoke at the daylong meeting.
4. HSMAI's Adrian Awards
Successful hospitality, tourism, or travel-related marketing campaigns win these awards doled out by Hospitality Sales and Marketing Association International. More than 700 guests attended the 16th annual black-tie awards dinner at the Marriott Marquis on January 30. Melanie Penoyar, director of development and awards competition for HSMAI, coordinated the event.
5. Corporate Travel World
If part of your job requires buying the plane tickets and booking the hotel rooms for executive travel, you're in the same boat as 300 people who attend Business Travel News's Corporate Travel World. Two days of educations sessions, panels, and exhibits fill the 21-year-old show, which will return to the Hilton New York from April 3 through 4.
